NOTE: The 9th Louisiana Infantry was mustered into Confederate States service at Camp Moore, Louisiana, 6 July, 1861. The regiment was comprised of six companies that were sworn in for the duration of the war and four companies for enlistments for twelve months and were detained on route from Piedmont Station by a railroad collision, arriving at Manassas Junction too late to be involved in the battle.

On 25 July 1861, the Army of the Potomac was reorganised and the 9th Louisiana Infantry was assigned to the Eighth Brigade, First Corps, Army of the Potomac, under the temporary command of Colonel I G Seymour, 6th Louisiana Infantry.
