As a followup to Dale's response, here's a little info about Company "A" of the 6th Alabama Infantry. Were any of your Alabama Wootens from Henry County?

6th Alabama Infantry, Company A

Organized as Columbia Blues and designated as Company "K" when it left Henry County Alabama. Known for a short while as Company "L" after reorganization in March 1862 became Company "A". Organized & recruited by Thomas Tipton Smith from Henry County Alabama and was the first Captain. He resigned 13 September 1861. (Exempt due to the lost of two sons) Thomas H. Bell became Captain and was killed in action at Seven Pines Virginia on May 31, 1862; Dr. Asbury Fletcher Powers (Dentist) took command until he retired 29 April 1864 due to wounds and injuries.
