For many years Todd Molesworth maintain an excellent website on O'Neal's 26th Alabama Infantry. It can be found at:

There is only one "Meadows" to be found in the list of men that served and that is John T. Meadows of Company H. Did I miss R. M. Meadows? Can anyone provide more information on this man?
