The South Carolina 26th Infantry Regiment was formed in Charleston in September 1862 from the remnants of the 6th and 9th Infantry Battalions, both devastated during early fighting in Virginia. The regiment later served in the siege of Jackson, Mississippi, the defense of Charleston, and finally returned to Virginia to fight in the Petersburg Siege and the Appomattox Campaign.
