Confederate States of America. Army. Florida Reserve.
The Florida Reserve functioned as a home guard and adjunct to Confederate States of America troops in repelling coastal raids and interior incursions by Union forces into Florida. It was organized into local companies maned by men 45 to 50 and boys between 17 and 18 who had been exempted from conscription into Confederate forces. This force was commanded by Brig. Gen. William Miller, who also served as superintendent of conscription and Commanding General of the Military District of Florida. Major William G. Poole served as Assistant Adjutant General on the staff of General Miller.
