We received the following from Ms. Davis. If you can help,
contact her at the address shown below.
I am writing a Regimental History on the 17th Georgia Infantry. I am posting the
idea of the book in order to locate descendants of the soldiers and officers of the
17th in order to let them be aware of the book and if they have any information they
would like included in the book such as photos, letters, diaries, brief genealogical
data and burial date and place.
The book will include all references to the 17th Georgia Infantry that are in the
Official Records, better known as the "OR Vols". It will also have information as to
all of the battles the Regiment took part in, chronological order, a complete roster
of each company, abstracted information from all pensions and military records, letters,
photos and as much genealogical data as space will permit. I am doing extensive research
on this regiment and expect it to take at least 1-2 more years before publication. For
more information or to contribute information, please contact me.
Update, October 13, 2003: At this time, I continue to do research and work on the
manuscript. I really don't know how much longer it will be. I will continue to take
information from descendants up until I am ready to publish. I am probably looking at
another year at least.
