Confederate Military Unit history files were created by the staff of the Alabama Department of Archives and History to compile as much information as possible on Alabama regiments during the Civil War. Each unit file has different material in it but there are various items which are common to most units. There are duplicates in many files of some material. Some of the common information in each file is:

  • Sketches - These are brief regimental or company histories. Most contain exerpts from Willis Brewer's Alabama: Her History, Resources, War Record, and Public Men, written in 1872. Brewer provides a general one-page history of each unit and lists the commanding officers. Also, many contain pertinent exerpts from Clement A. Evans' Confederate Military History, which he edited in 1899. A short history of Alabama units and their official record was written by General Joseph Wheeler for this work. Any other sketches on a unit are contained in this file.

  • DuBose manuscript - John Witherspoon DuBose and Joel DuBose wrote manuscripts in the early 1900s on many regiments using official records and sometimes first-hand accounts. None of these was published and are in the original hand written form.

  • Newspaper clippings - These are original or copies of newspaper clippings about the unit. Some are war-time accounts and some were written after the war. Some newspapers had a series of articles written by someone in a unit. Most give an account of their unit during the war.

  • Directors' correspondence - This is original correspondence with the directors of the Alabama Department of Archives and History about certain aspects of the unit's history. Most of these letters are to and from the state's first archivist, Thomas M. Owen, in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Many letters are from former soldiers and some contain short unit histories.

  • Deceased soldier accounts - These are copies of deceased soldier accounts from early in the war. These accounts were used to pay family members any money due the deceased soldier.
