I had two Great Grandfathers who served under Cleburne.

George Padgett of the 6th Florida was part of Hardee’s Brigade and Martin Abel McDuffie was in the 18th Alabama along with 3 Brothers. They both fought at Shiloh then most of the other major battles afterward.

They were both descendants of Highland Scots from the Western Islands tho, not Irish.
