Anderson was a respected merchant in Fort Valley of Houston County, Georgia before the War. He was elected Captain of the Beauregard Volunteers. This company was raised from the men of Fort Valley. The company was organized into the 6^th Georgia Infantry Regiment. At Antietam Anderson was wounded, taken prisoner, and sent to Fort Delaware. Upon release he was promoted to Major of the regiement. At Chancellorsville he was wounded. After the battle he was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel. In fall of 1863 Anderson was elected the Georgia State Legislature. He served a term in the State Legislature and then returned to light duty in order to fully recuperate from his wounds. In 1864 he was called back to Atlanta by Georgia Governor Brown to aid in the defense of the city. He resigned from the Confederate Army and ultimately was given command of the 3^rd Brigade of Georgia Militia as Brigadier General.  Within a few days Anderson is back in the CSA when Governor Brown turns over the militia to General Johnston.
