The repository holds a small group of records of the military and government of the Confederate States of America (CSA), consisting largely of records donated to the agency or microfilm copies of records in other repositories which were purchased by the department. Many of these records were created by individuals in an official capacity with the CSA. Included are order books, record and report books, quartermaster records, muster rolls, and enrollment books for chiefly infantry regiments.
