Capt. Willis B. Sanderlin

 

 

 

 

 

This company mustered into service on July 7th, 1863, as a partisan ranger company. They were assigned to the 66th NC as Co. F. The 66th failed to form and the unit eventually became part of the 68th NC. Raised in the Sandy Hook area of Camden County, Company B was led by Captain Willis B. Sanderlin. Their main camp was located in the swamp near Sandy Hook on a section of high ground known as Guerilla Island. Company B was involved in skirmishes with General Edward A. Wild’s expedition into northeastern North Carolina in December 1863 – January 1864.
