Thomson Guards

This company was organized in Thomson, Georgia, (then Columbia County, now McDuffie County), with 104 men and left Thomson May 29, 1861, for Richmond, Virginia, and was mustered into service June 3rd, as Company “F” of the 10th Regiment of Georgia Volunteers.  Over the course of the four year war, 128 soldiers became part of this company.
 
Twenty-three of these soldiers died in combat; these are indicated with an “*”.  Twenty-one others died of disease; no doubt some caused from battle wounds.  These are indicated by a “+”. Of the 128 soldiers that mustered into Company F, only 10 remained to answer the muster roll call at Appomattox Court House.
