Consolidated record shows he was a Major in the 3rd SCVI who was promoted to Lt Col. upon the resignation of the officer holding the position at the time. Upon reorganization of the regiment, he apparently was not re-elected to lead the regiment. He appears to have spent the remainder of the war in search of a command and/or as a recruiting officer in Newberry County.
