HUGHES, from Pensacola Trail to Middleton on Montezuma Road; S. J. FEAGIN,from Middleton to the Covington County Line.Company "C" 17th Alabama Infantry Regiment, organized in Butler Co., AL, was
also called the "Blue Rifles". I went to the Alabama Archives on 16 Mar 2000
and found the muster roll for this company. J. M typed it. There was no last
name for J. M. I have footnote numbers beside some names in the newspaper
article. The footnotes refer to additional information or different
information that was in the muster roll at the Archives. At the end of the
article I added names that were on the muster roll but not in the newspaper
article. The muster roll states that the Company was organized on 14 Sep
1861.
