Dr. Major Eben Hillyer, CSA

When the Civil War started, Hillyer promptly entered the service of the Confederacy, becoming surgeon with the rank of Major. He was assigned to duty as surgeon of the Eighth and Thirty-second Mississippi regiments, Lowery's brigade, Cleburne's division, and was present at the Battle of Resaca, Battle of Cass Station, Battle of New Hope Church, Battle of Dallas, the siege of Atlanta, the battles of July 21 and 22, 1864, at that point, and also the engagements at Jonesboro and Dalton, Georgia ; Decatur and Selma, Alabama, and Spring Hill and Franklin, Tennessee. He was made president of the army medical board in the Tennessee campaign of the Western Army, and retired from the service only when the cause of the Confederacy was finally lost. He remained in service until after the last of the wounded from the battle of Selma, Alabama, had received proper attention, and was thus on active duty until June, 1865
