Historical Sketch and Roster of the Georgia 6th Cavalry Battalion State Guards
Rigdon, John C.
Omschrijving
The Georgia 6th Cavalry Battalion State Guards was formed in August 1863 to serve for six months as local defense in the northwest section of the state. The battalion was comprised of horse soldiers from Chattooga and Walker counties.
The only verified engagement with the enemy is noted on January 22, 1864, at the Battle of Subligna in Chattooga County.
As Sherman threatened in the spring of 1864, most of these men probably joined in with Wheeler's or Forrest's troops for the Atlanta and Carolinas campaign, but records are sparse.
