A page with links and helpful information about Confederate regiments and units from 1861-1865. Some sites also contain pension and genealogical information. If you know the unit your ancestor served in, then you can find out where that unit was formed, what battles it was in, etc. Some units even have muster rolls and pension information.

Calhoun County Confederate Units are listed at the bottom of this page.

Some of these sites use "politically correct" language when discussing the War Between the States. Please overlook this, or contact each site about their mistakes. Otherwise, there is a lot of valuable information at each site.

. . . . . . The following sites gives information about Confederate pensions given in the States of Tennessee and Texas. If a former Confederate lived in Tennessee or Texas, even if he fought in an Alabama or Georgia unit, then he could have drawn a Tennesee or Texas pension. I wish that all of the Confederate pensions were availiable on sites like this.
