45th Infantry Regiment was organized at Camp Mangum, near Raleigh, North Carolina, in April, 1862, with men from Rockingham, Caswell, Guilford, and Forsyth counties. It served under the command of Generals Daniel and Grimes. After fighting at the Battle of Malvern Hill in Virginia, it returned to North Carolina and was stationed in the Kinston-New Bern area.

Early in the Shenandoah Valley and ended the war at Appomattox.
