.
Seven Militia Brigades of North Texas
.
From July 1861 until December 1861, the seven militia brigades of North Texas were organized. This study contains 240 militia listings of men from 34 counties of these 7 brigades plus the brigade correspondence of the 7 brigades, which contains references to Indian Territory. It should be noted that the objective was to enroll about 100 soldiers in each militia, but many captains fell short of enrolling 100. (Volume II. Appendix has 300 pages transcribed from the original records of 34 counties).
7th Brigade: Bowie County, Davis County (now Cass County), and Marion County.
8th Brigade: Red River County and Titus County.
9th Brigade: Hopkins County and Lamar County.
14th Brigade: Fannin County and Hunt County.
15th Brigade: Collin County and Grayson County.
20th Brigade: Erath County, Johnson County (Hood County formed from 1866),
Palo Pinto County, Parker County, and Tarrant County.
21st Brigade: Archer County, Baylor County, Clay County, Cooke County,
Denton County, Hardeman County, Haskell County, Jack
County, Jones County, Knox County, Montague County,
