I would like to know if there is a link to where I can find information on Confederate units formed from Jackson County, AL. or if someone might know & share info. The area is Bellefonte (the County capital before the War) and surrounding areas. I am not having any luck with searching and have 4-5 male members of my tree from this area unaccounted for after the War. I have read that Jackson County, AL is the only county that was occupied all 4 years of the war and the families there must have paid a heavy toll. Thanks for any help~

Here is a link to Alabama Civil War Roots on rootsweb. In the index you will find home counties of Alabama Civil War Units. After you have the units, you can also click on the Alabama Units Links to search individual units for get more information.

Thank-you for your response. I checked the link you suggested, a great source but for me, no luck with a match.
What I have are 5 civil war records with the family names I am researching in Jackson Co., Alabama. Everything as far as unit and rank are listed, but NO county. Because of duplicate names I don't feel I can use these records. If I could somehow match them to Jackson County it would be more consistant. I found the various Alabama Units on the Link you suggested but found they listed only the Officers. They didn't include the troops names. The names I am researching show they were all Privates and Volunteers. So close! Thanks again

Here is a link for the Alabama Civil War Database. It is found on the Alabama Dept. of Archives and History site.

If you are looking at Muster slips from NARA on a soldier, most have when and where the soldier enlisted. Often it shows just a town or crossroads name. But this can be researched to tell where he enlisted. Give me a name and I will look to see what I can find.
