Because I do not live in Alabama, I am having problems getting documents to help me solve this problem. He man who I believe is my ancestor was first in the 15th Battalion Alabama Partisan Rangers. He is listed in the compiled service records for this unit as T.J. Palmer. He enlisted in Company A as the assistant surgeon. He was later made a private. The 15th Battalion was later consolidated into the 56th Alabama Mounted Infantry. T.J. Palmer does not appear in the compiled service records for the 56th but I found a document online which stated that he was discharged from the 56th due to promotion. Any any information anyone can provide on this T.J. Palmer will be appreciated. Based on what I found on the internet, it looks as though Company A was from Autauga county. I have not idea where he was from before the war. But any information will be appreciated. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

The correct address to the website Kathryn suggested is actually: http://groups.msn.com/AutaugaatWar/ It's a great site and includes not only the Prattville Dragoons, but all companies from Autauga. It would be an excellent place to start your search.
