This company was commanded by Lieutenant, later Captain, William T. Hart throughout it's formation in 1863 and tragic end in April, 1865. The company was originally known as "Hart's Engineers", but later became Co E of the 3rd Regiment. Although the company was officially attached to the 3rd Regiment which was assigned to the Army of The Tennessee, Hart's Engineers served for the most part as a detached engineer company in the Western Virginia and Shenandoah Valley region of Virginia. Most of the records of the Confederate Corps of Engineers were destroyed during the evacuation and occupation of Richmond during the last days of the war, thus most of the information gathered here represents dates and facts gathered from books, journals, biographies, and the Official Records of the Civil War."
