Re: 11th Texas Infantry ( Robert's Regiment)

ELEVENTH TEXAS INFANTRY

The regiment was attached to the Army of New Mexico on March 1, 1862, but there are no records that it participated in any engagements that far west. In May of 1862 Colonel Roberts had a total of 1,338 men at Camp Lubbock in Harris County of which only 408 were fit for duty. They remained stationed in East Texas from May through August of 1862. Soldiers from the Eleventh Texas Infantry were furnished with cloth for tents, knapsacks, and for some clothing, by the Texas State Penitentiary at Huntsville, Texas. The regiment left Camp Lubbock on May 30, 1862, and arrived at Camp Clough near Tyler, Texas, on June 20, 1862. The unit was then assigned to Gen. Benjamin McCulloch's Division within Gen. Horace Randal's Brigade.
