The Southern Cross of Honor award, which later became the Cross of Military Service, originated on Oct. 13, 1862 as an act of the Confederate Congress to recognize the courage and good conduct of officers, non-commissioned officers and privates of the Confederate army. However, due to wartime shortages, the medals were not made, but the recipients' names were recorded in an Honor Roll for future reference. The cross's design was created by Mrs. Alexander S. Erwin in July 1898. It featured a cross with a Confederate battle flag on the face surrounded by a laurel wreath, with the inscription "The Southern Cross of Honor." The motto of the C.S.A., "Deo Vindice" 1861-1865, and the inscription "From the U.D.C. to the U.C.V." appear on the reverse side.

On September 10, 1894, Mrs. Caroline Meriwether Goodlett of Tennessee and Mrs. Anna Davenport Raines of Georgia met to form an organization dedicated to honoring those individuals who fought for the Confederacy. Began as the National Association of the Daughters of the Confederacy, the organization changed its name to the United Daughters of the Confederacy in 1895. Membership in UDC requires that applicants have at least one ancestor who fought for the Confederacy during the Civil War. UDC chapters exist across the country and perform research, preserve historic sites and landmarks, collect rare books and documents, and work with charitable organizations around the country to provide assistance to groups and individuals in need. The UDC has also organized the Children of the Confederacy, which allows children under the age of 18 to participate with their peers in learning, researching and honoring their ancestors. Mrs. Caroline Meriwether Goodlett was born in Tennessee on November 3, 1833 to Charles Nicholas and Caroline Huntley Barker Meriwether. She was married to John Sturdevant on December 3, 1853. After the death of her brother in a Civil War battle. Goodlett aided the Southern cause by sewing, making clothing, delivering medicine and nursing soldiers. Soon after the war, she divorced her husband but continued working to aid veterans and their families. In 1869, she married Colonel Michael Campbell Goodlett. In 1894, Goodletts dream of creating an organization dedicated to preserving the memory of the Southern cause became a reality with the formation of the United Daughters of the Confederacy. Goodlett was elected the organizations first president. Goodlett remained active with the organization until declining health prevented her from participating in UDC meetings. Caroline Goodlett died on October 16, 1914 in her home in Nashville, TN. Anna Mitchell Davenport Raines was born to Major Hugh McCall Davenport and Martha Anne Elizabeth Stone on April 8, 1853 near Savannah, Georgia. As a child, Raines assisted Confederate soldiers by carrying food, bandages and medicines to nearby hospitals. Her family was forced to flee Savannah as the battles moved closer to the city. At the end of the war, the family returned home, but eventually moved to New York. On February 11, 1873 she was married Lucian Hamilton Raines. In 1892, Raines responded to a call from the Confederate Veterans Association for women to a form an auxiliary organization, to which she was elected as secretary. Raines saw the need for a more permanent organization, and in 1893, the Daughters of the Confederacy was formed. Soon after, it came to Raines attention that there was already another organization with the same name. While corresponding with Caroline Meriwether Goodlett about using the UDC name, they decided to contact other similar organizations around the country about forming one national organization. From this, in 1894, the United Daughters of the Confederacy was born. Raines became the president of UDC in 1896, but in 1897 she refused a second term. Anna Mitchell Davenport Raines died in Savannah, Georgia on January 21, 1915.

In 1894, several state women’s groups that aided Confederate soldiers’ and widow’s homes formed a national organization, the United Daughters of the Confederacy (UDC). In 1896, the Katie Cabell Muse established the Texas Division of the UDC in Victoria and the Albert Sidney Johnston Chapter #105 in Austin the following year. The UDC Texas Division marks historic locations and graves, erects monuments, and holds memorial observances to honor Confederate soldiers and events. The organization also contributes to the study of Southern history, awarding scholarships to descendants of Confederate veterans and operating the Texas Confederate Museum. Although no longer sponsoring Confederate homes, the Texas Division financially assists members in nursing homes through the Randolph Relief Fund, established in 1910. Furthermore, the Johnston Chapter instituted the Farley Scholarship Fund for Travis County students to enter the University of Texas at Austin in 1924, and provided custodians to the Texas Confederate Museum while it was located in the Old General Land Office in Austin from 1917 to 1986.

The Southern Cross of Honor award, which later became known as the Cross of Military Service, originated on October 13, 1862 as an act of the Confederate Congress to recognize the courage, valor and good conduct of officers, non-commissioned officers and privates of the Confederate Army. Due to wartime shortages, however, the medals were unable to be made. The recipients' names were then recorded in an Honor Roll for future reference.

Mrs. Alexander S. Erwin first designed the cross that was used by the United Daughters of the Confederacy (UDC) in July 1898. It featured a cross with the Confederate battle flag on the face surrounded by a laurel wreath and the inscription The Southern Cross of Honor. On the reverse side the motto of the Confederate States, Deo Vindice (God our Vindicator), 1861-1865, appears alongside the inscription From the U.D.C. to the U.C.V. The Southern Cross of Honor and the Cross of Military Service are the two most prestigious honors awarded by the UDC.
