        Note: It appears he died between 1862 (conception of his las t child) and 1870 (census record). The most likely place would b e the war between the states.

        From Gene & Brenda Thorn

        11th Alabama Cavalry

        Also known as the 10th Alabama (Burtwell's) Cavalry Regiment. Th e nucleus of this regiment was a command that served for some ti me under Col. Jeffrey E. Forrest, Forrest's Cavalry Regiment, al so called the 4th Cavalry Regiment. The command was increased t o a regiment, and re-organized by transferring 4 Tennessee compa nies to the 18th Tennessee Cavalry and by sending 5 Alabama comp anies to Warren's and Moreland's cavalry battalions. The 11th Al abama Cavalry Regiment was organized by the consolidation of War ren's and William's cavalry battalions on 14 January 1865, compr ising men from Franklin, Lauderdale, Limestone, and Morgan count ies. It was with Forrest in the attack on Athens and Sulphur Tre stle, and in the fight at Pulaski, losing very severely in casua lties on the expedition. The regiment rendered effective servic e to Gen. John Bell Hood. It was part of Philip Dale Roddy's for ce at Montevallo, and was in front of Union Gen'l James Wilson' s column to Selma; At the assault on the works there, the Eleven th was in the trenches, and nearly all its men retired therefrom , as the part of the line held by them was not assailed. The reg iment laid down its arms at Decatur in May, 1865.

        Field and staff officers: Col. John Robertson Bedford Burtwell ( Lauderdale); Lt. Col. John F. Doan (MS); Major Melville W. Sale ; and Adjutant David H. Halsey (Franklin)
