256: 1668:. At 6:30 am, Mahone ordered Weisiger's Brigade and another from his division to plug the hole in the Confederate line. At 9:00 am, the regiment advanced with the rest of the brigade towards the Crater, but fell back under heavy fire and advanced to the left, into the occupied trenches. In heavy hand-to-hand combat, they drove the IX Corps soldiers from the trenches, while two other brigades assaulted the Crater, driving the Union from it in a bloody repulse, including a massacre of black soldiers. The regiment suffered heavy losses, including Captain Heslop Mingea of Company C, Captain Beverly Hunter of Company K, and Lieutenant Charles Denoon of Company K. 96: 913:, Huger's Division maintained its position. On June 29, it was ordered down the Charles City Road to cut off the Union retreat, but Huger proceeded cautiously and lost the opportunity to do so. During the following day, while the division tried to struggle through felled trees along the road, some of Mahone's Brigade was detached to cover Mooreman's Battery, engaged in an artillery duel near White Oak Swamp. In Mahone's report at the end of the Seven Days he wrote that the regiment "suffered more severely than any other regiment, owing to its position" and "behaved well under the authority of the gallant Parham." 1160:, Lee moved Mahone's Brigade to United States Ford in early February. The regiments of the brigade took turns standing guard and improving the road back to the Orange Turnpike. Throughout the winter efforts were made to improve the regiment, now numbering 305. Courts martial were convened to try crimes and Officers Review Boards aspired to weeding out incompetent officers, though the effect of both was to deprive the regiment of officers. Lieutenant Denoon acted as commander of Company B, and for a short time even as a battalion commander. In March, a new chaplain arrived and found the beginnings of a 1487:, but left Anderson's Division north of Clark's Mountain to defend against a possible envelopment. They remained on guard throughout May 5, receiving orders to move east on the Plank Road to the battlefield at 7:00 pm, reaching three miles west of the battlefield by just after dawn the next morning. But the division was halted, so Longstreet could bring his First Corps up the road and engage at Tapp Farm, the major action of the morning. Lee ordered several of Anderson's brigades forward to join Longstreet, but the counterattack ground to a halt against the Union II Corps, under 79: 1225:, ordered Anderson's Division to advance against Sykes' men down the turnpike. Mahone's Brigade formed a line north of the road, with the 41st Virginia anchoring the left flank on it and advanced to within about half a mile of the Chancellor Mansion after a day of hard fighting. The next morning, while Jackson made his historic flank march, Anderson's Division remained in place to hold the Union forces. Beginning at 3:30 pm, the division was moved south to replace Jackson's departing units and the regiment spent the evening supporting batteries on the Plank Road. 37: 1764: 1506:, as well as Mahone's Brigade for the assault. Mahone, as the senior brigadier, led the group off at about 11:00 am, crashing totally unexpected onto Hancock's flank about forty-five minutes later. As the Union flank crumpled, Longstreet ordered his men forward too, and a confused flight began among Hancock's troops. Lt. Colonel Minetree was wounded, and Mahone halted his brigade to reform before the chaos grew worse. The 12th Virginia continued advancing, though, until Colonel 1683:. Weisiger's Brigade, with one other, left the lines on August 19 and hit the left flank of the V Corps to the northeast of Globe Tavern. Warren brought up reinforcements, forcing Mahone to withdraw his two brigades. On August 21, the regiment with the rest of the brigade joined in another attack on Warren's position, this time from the west, but was driven off without achieving a breakthrough, leaving Warren in control of Globe Tavern, the new Union left. 1344:, Anderson's Division spent the day waiting, interspersed with short marches towards Gettysburg. A crowded road and confused orders because of the unintended development of the battle resulted in very little progress for the division. Lee had committed to battle by evening and, after a brief rest, Anderson's Division made a night march to Gettysburg, arriving in the morning and taking up a position at the northern end of 1695:, and Mahone and Heth were sent to stop the attack. Mahone's Division advanced through the woods and collapsed the right flank of Hancock's II Corps on Dabney Mill Road. Veteran II Corps commanders rapidly changed their positions and surrounded Mahone's Division, driving the Confederates back with heavy losses. Hancock retreated, and the Confederates returned to their defenses on the Boydton Plank Road. 1153:

December 13, the Union army attacked. Throughout the day, the 41st Virginia laid flat to avoid the heavy artillery bombardment designed to keep them from reinforcing the Confederates on Marye's Heights. In the afternoon, while Burnside threw wave after wave of men at Marye's Heights, Colonel Parham sent Companies B and K under Lieutenant Charles Denoon of Company K forward to engage Union pickets.

The regiment had lost 186 officers and men during combat on the Virginia Peninsula, but with losses from desertion, less than 500 were present in Chesterfield County. 1371:. Despite having been barely engaged so far, Anderson's Division was not selected to take part in a three division afternoon assault led by Longstreet. Known to history as "Pickett's Charge", it was a disaster, and Anderson's Division was spread down the line to cover its length as the three divisions under Longstreet made their way back to the main army. 759: 1567:. Lee had been able to deploy Anderson's First Corps to keep Grant from turning the flank, though, and the Union general-in-chief decided there was nothing more to be gained from attacks on the Confederate position. The 41st Virginia remained in its trenches, not participating in Ewell's failed offensive on the Union flank. 1202:
