After that town was captured, the records were transferred by Union officials to Washington, D.C., along with other confiscated Confederate records, and preserved by the U.S. War Department. In 1903, the secretary of war persuaded the governors of most southern states to lend to the U.S. War Department those Confederate military personnel records kept by the states so that they could be copied. These service records were compiled by extracting information about individual soldiers from company muster rolls, hospital registers, and prisoner of war lists, and other sources. The data were copied onto individual cards that, along with any original documents, were filed by military unit and arranged alphabetical index to these records was created. These compiled service records are now part of the holdings of the National Archives in Washington D.C. http://www.sos.state.ga.us/archives/rs/cws.htm The following are copies of materials received from the Georgia Archives. Some of the images are very hard to read. I have transcribed them to the best of my ability.[ ]=written by hand, ?=illedgible Card Folder: 1683 [Pope, Jackson] Co.[H], 63 Georgia Infantry.
