Was a servant of the 43rd Ms. Vol. Inf., Co. K, CSA - served the captain's mess, including Capt. Love, lst Lt. (acting captain) H.J. Gully, and 1st Sergeant (later captain of cavalry) Benjamin Lampley; served the whole war, except the Carolina's Campaign, when he was sick at home; Eli Lampley's Confederate Pension application was witnessed by none other than company 2nd Lt. Robert Adcock, who would certainly have been familiar with Eli's service to the first officers of the company [Note: Eli Lampley was almost certainly a slave of wealthy John C. Lampley of Kemper County, who was the father of Benjamin Lampley and father-in-law of H.J. Gully] (aged 18 when he went to war)
