In answer to the call of President of the Provisional Government of the Confederate States of America, Jefferson Davis, on or around the 1 July 1861, companies of volunteers from all over the Secessionist States began to bring themselves forward.

The first regiment to be formed was numbered as the 12th South Carolina Volunteers. The regiments' officers were, at its beginning:
