Marion County Militia

I find a Volunteer Cavalry Compay in the 31st Militia Regiment of Marion County, with the following officers commissioned on 13 June 1861:

Eli Dodson Capt
E. H. Messick 1Lt
Campbel Hurst 2Lt
D. K. Tutt, Jr, 3Lt

I think this company probably became part of 14TH (POWERS) ARKANSAS INFANTRY REGIMENT, probably B Company , but I am not sure. Eil Dodson seems to be the same person elected COL of the 14th in 1862 and Messeck appears to have become a Major, but I am not sure which company they came from. There is a Sgt Tutt in B Company.
