The following muster roll was scanned from The Roster of the Confederate Soldiers of Georgia by Lillian Henderson. Lillian Henderson was Director of Confederate Pension and Record Department of the State of Georgia during the 1950's and her office compiled the records of the Confederate Infantry soldiers of Georgia for the State. The six volume set was published just in time for the American Civil War Centennial, 1961 - 1965, and may be found at any library in Georgia. Note: Scanning is not the most perfect way of coping printed material, if you note any mistakes please let us know.

For more detailed information the official Confederate records of Georgia should be searched. Confederate military and pension records, on microfilm, are found at the State Archives and some larger libraries in Georgia.
