I think J. D. Goodson was our first Color Bearer; at his death
Ingram took them and carried them until we surrendered at Vicksburg; and after we
were exchanged S. K. Huff carried them until killed at Resaca; T. A. Boyd carried
them to Atlanta. They were then turned over to W. F. Edwards, the last Color
Bearer.
This list is not exactly correct, as I have gotten it up without
any assistance and entirely from memory. You will see that there are a good many
reported died at the hospital, the reason of that is they were sent off and we never
heard from them.
