Roster of Company F,

"The Rebel Troopers"

of

"Roddey's" 4th Alabama Cavalry, CSA

It is believed that Company F, also designated the "Rebel Troopers" was mustered into service in Tuscumbia, Alabama. It is known to be composed of many men from Lauderdale County. Thanks to Bryan Summerhill of Florence, Alabama who personally compiled these names from the microfilmed muster rolls of the company. Alternative names in italics/parenthesis, are taken from another source, "The History of Lauderdale County". While it is believed by me that Bryan's listing is more realiable, the other source should be taken in consideration.  Also,  it  should be kept in mind that some soldier's names may have been omitted due to incomplete muster rolls.

Part of the purpose of this web site is to provide the genealogical or family histories of these gallant men that defended their native State from invasion. If anyone has photos (wartime, postwar, or even tombstone), birth/death records, "family trees", burial information, or wartime accounts on any of the below soldiers, please notify me, Scott K. Williams, and I will appreciate adding this information to this website.
