State of Tennessee, Montgomery County:
The foregoing muster roll of Company G, of the Forty-nineth Tennessee Regiment, is a full, true, and perfect list of the same, so far as my memory will admit of making. The company was organized by me at Palmyra, this county, on December 3, 1861. Upon organization, it was composed of sixty-four men, but as all records have been lost, I can only furnish the above, which is a exclusively from memory
I was promoted to colonel of the regiment in September, 1863. Lieutenants Howard and Coutler were afterward promoted to captains, but both were killed, and I am now the only captain of this company.W. F. Young,
First Captain of Company G, Forty-sixth Tennessee, afterward Colonel of the Regiment
Clarksville, Tenn., April 17, 1863
