Information provided by Cosette Lewis, from the book Soldiers of Florida
The 11th Florida Regiment was composed of the 4th Florida Battalion, seven
companies, the companies of Captains Ochus and Robinson, of the 2nd
Battalion, and Cullen's unattached company. There is some confusion in the
records that makes the assignment of two of the companies in this Regiment
uncertain. W. J. Robinson was Captain of Co. A; Adams A. Ochus, of Co. D;
Charles Beggs, of Co. E; John Tanner, of Co. F; G. W. Bassett, of Co. G; W.
E. Anderson, of Co. H; Joe J. Chaires, of Co. I; D. D. McLean, of Co. K.
Like the 10th the story of the 11th follows closely that of the 9th until
the fateful April 6, when this Regiment with the 5th and 8th, under the
command of Colonel Brevard, was sent by Colonel Lang, then in command of
the Brigade, Finnegan having been transferred to Florida, by order of
General Lee to protect the wagon train. These Regiments were captured by
General Custer's Cavalry. This accounts for the Regiment surrendering but 4
officers and 19 men on the morning of April 9 at Appomatox.
