Dr. Jones, I have transcribed the service records of approx. 4000 Ala. CSA service men and find only one Norwegian that I can postively identify. Pvt. William Johnson, Co. F, 43rd Alabama Infantry. Age-47, eyes-blue, hair-light, complexion-light, 5 foot 6 inches, born in Kingdom of Norway, a sailor by occupation, enlisted on April 20, 1862, at Mobile, Ala. There are others, Anderson's and such, that I suspect are Norwegians as well but only the one for sure. Art Green.
