This company, known as the "Perquimans Beauregards" was raised in Perquimans County and

but was soon converted to a standard infantry organization. The company was mustered in on
May 16, 1861; it remained in camp in Perquimans County until ordered to new Bern on July 3.
On July 19 the company departed on board the steamer Curlew and traveled to New bern via the
