Tackett's Infantry Company CSA was raised under the Tennessee Conscription Act of 1861. The act required all men between cetrain ages to report for militia duty to support and protect the state. The company was gathered in Wayne County and marched to Nashville to be mustered into active service.The company was apparently partially mustered into service on 5 February 1862, but was ordered away from Nashville before the muster could be completed. This hasty departure was a result of the fall of Ft. Donaldson and Fty. Henry. The men received no equipment or arms. Neither had they been given food or medical supplies. When ordered away from Nashville, they were forced to return to Wayne County, Tennessee the best way they could. Many of these men later joined the Union Army, including the company commander, Joseph W. TACKETT. indicating that many had been forced into the Confederate Army against their will.
