Camille Archibald Baquet (1842 – November 28, 1924) was an American Civil War Union Army officer who served in the 1st New Jersey Volunteer Infantry regiment and was the author of the first history of the unit's brigade, the famed First New Jersey Brigade.

Baquet was born in Paterson, New Jersey, one of eight children born to Camille Baquet (or Baquett), a law professor and translator from Paris,[1][2] and Harriet Stuart Lord, the daughter of English immigrants.

He then served until June 23, 1864, when his enlistment expired by law, and he was honorably mustered out of Federal service.

During his 14-month tenure with the 1st New Jersey, his regiment saw combat at the Battles of Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, the Wilderness, Spotsylvania, and Cold Harbor.
