Historical Sketch and Roster of the Tennessee 2nd Infantry Regiment (Robison's) by John C. Rigdon PDF Summary

Book Description: The Tennessee 2nd Infantry Regiment was organized May 6, 1861 and mustered into Confederate Service at Lynchburg, Va. May 12, 1861. The regiment was under the command of Colonel W. D. Robison (Robinson). Immediately after mustering, less than 30 days after organization, the regiment was under fire at Aquia Creek, Virginia on June 1, 1861 where it supported Confederate batteries in an engagement with Federal warships. On July 19, 1861, the brigade joined Beauregard's forces at Manassas, preparatory to the battle of July 21. Holmes' Brigade was placed in support of Brigadier General Richard S. Ewell's Brigade, and was not actively engaged in the fighting, although it came under heavy fire while shifting position in the afternoon of the battle. The 2nd was then sent to what is now Quantico, Virginia where they re-enlisted for three years or the duration of the war. They then went to Knoxville, Huntsville, Alabama., Corinth, Mississippi and Shiloh, Tennessee. They continued throughout the war in the west, participating in the Atlanta Campaign, Franklin, Nashville and surrendering in North Carolina.
