  • Co. F, 20th TN

    Warren Hook has compiled a roster of Co. F with some good information about the real guys that served in it. Doug Jones formatted it to be read more easily. I appreciate the efforts of both.

    I post it here for company members that I have not been able to reach by email. If you would like to use the name of an original company member for your impression please let me know by email or private message so that I can have my company roster in a more accurate state by the first roll call.
