My great-great uncle, Reverend John Forsyth Register (1845-1928), was the second sheriff of Geneva County. The link on this post tells the story of his Confederate unit, Clanton's Brigade, which was organized after the Yankees stole the steamboat BLOOMER @ Geneva around Christmas of 1862. My uncle was in Company K, 6th Alabama Cavalry. Even though it was named "Alabama Cavalry", it is also considered a Florida unit because so many of its men were from the Panhandle. (Leonia, Florida is named after my uncle's first wife, Leonia Register) http://files.usgwarchives.net/fl/santarosa/military/6alcoi.txt
