Troops from the 9th Battalion Tennessee Cavalry,Logan's Brigade were on the raid at Springfield Landing.

Co.A Private Bill Miller,Killed in charge at Springfield Landing.

"Confederate Soldiers and Patriots of Maury Co.,Tn." by Jill Garrett,1970.

There is also an interesting account of Logan's raid on the Landing in Lindsley's,"Military Annals of Tennessee." Look in the unit history of the 9th Battalion Tennessee Cavalry.

Most likely there were a few others killed and wounded at this engagement in addition to the soldier listed above.Lyndsley says that after the initial investment,the 9th.Battalion was sent down the road towards Port Hudson and drove back a Rhode Island cavalry regiment sent up by Banks to relieve the post.
