This also includes records from those that died in Crisp County, as Crisp was formed from Dooly in 1905. Additional genealogical information has been added to many of the soldiers listed here. The particular rosters included are from Company F, of the 12th Regiment; Company I, of the 18th Regiment; Company C, of the 45th Regiment; and Company C, of the 55th Regiment.
