Brief History
"Units of the Confederate States Army" by Joseph H. Crute, Jr. contains no history for this unit.

Companies in this Regiment with the Counties of Origin
Men often enlisted in a company recruited in the counties where they lived though not always. After many battles, companies might be combined because so many men were killed or wounded. However if you are unsure which company your ancestor was in, try the company recruited in his county first.

The 21st Regiment Arkansas Militia—the White County Militia—held its last muster on March 7-9, 1862, location not stated. Shortly after this muster, most of its members enlisted in the 36th Arkansas Infantry Regiment, CSA. The following rosters are taken from the March 1862 muster roll of the White County Militia.
