Company H, 6th Florida Infantry Regiment was a military company of the Confederate States of America during the US Civil War.

On February 2, 1862, the Confederate War Department issued a call for troops. Florida, under this newly imposed quota, would furnish two regiments and a battalion to fight for the duration of the war. The troops would rendezvous at preselected locations and there "be clothed, supplied, and armed at the expense of the Confederate States." Furthermore, each enlistee would receive a $50 bounty for volunteering.

Organization
Angus Duncan McLean organized what would become Company H of the 6th Florida Infantry Regiment. McLean was born in 1836 near Eucheeanna, Walton County, Florida. One of nine children of a wealthy family, he was schooled at the Knox Hill Academy in Walton County. He subsequently attended the Cumberland University Law School in Lebanon, Tennessee, from which he graduated January 26, 1859. In 1860, he was practicing law at Milton, Santa Rosa County, Florida, and residing in the household of James G. Allen.

In March 1862, McLean would return to Walton County and begin recruiting a company of infantry from the citizens of Walton and Santa Rosa Counties in Northwest Florida. Of the soldiers whose birthplaces are known, less than half claimed Florida. Alabamians composed thirty-seven percent of the company and North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, and Mississippi all had representatives; the average age was 25 years old. McLean was elected Captain.



"McLean's company" was ordered to "camp of instruction" at the Mount Vernon Arsenal at Chattahoochie in Gadsden County in late March, where they would be trained in maneuvering in large bodies and in campaigning duties. On April 2, 1862, the 109 men in McLean's Company would be mustered into Confederate service for "3 years, or the war".

On April 10, 1862, Florida Governor John Milton informed Secretary of War George W. Randolph that the requisition for "two regiments and a half of infantry…would by the 15th instant be fully organized and subject to your orders, and companies enough have volunteered for service for three years or the war to compose three full regiments of infantry. ... to serve during the war and wherever their services may be necessary…the Sixth Regiment, at the Mount Vernon Arsenal on the Chattahoochie, will be organized on the 14th instant."

About April 15, elections of field and staff officers for the 6th Florida were held. Due in no small part to the efforts of his numerous kin in Walton County and Knox Hill Academy classmates, the 26-year-old McLean would be elected Lieutenant Colonel; Lieutenant Stephen A. Cawthon would replace McLean as company commander, and the company would become "Cawthon's company". With the election of field officers concluded, the 8 companies at Mount Vernon Arsenal and 2 companies at Rico's Bluff would be formally organized as the 6th Regiment of Florida Infantry.

"Cawthon's company" would be officially designated as Company H; the men of Company H would bestow upon themselves the unofficial sobriquet of "Union Rebels", which may very well have been a "tongue-in-cheek" indication of Walton County's "pro-Union" leaning. During Florida's secession convention, 7 of the 60 delegates voted against secession. 2 of the 7 "nay" votes were the delegates from Walton County; Alexander L. McCaskill and John Morrison. Verbal legend has it that the sobriquet "Union Rebels" resulted from Walton County voting for "Union", but following the majority vote of the State to secede ("Rebels").

On April 23, 1862, Florida Adjutant and Inspector General Wm. H. Milton would inform Governor Milton that, "The following companies compose the Sixth Regiment, eight companies of which are at the Mount Vernon Arsenal and two at Rico’s Bluff; Magnolia State Guards, Capt. L. M. Attaway; Campbellton Greys, Capt. H. B. Grace; Jackson County Volunteers, Lieut. John B. Hayes; Jackson County Company, Capt. H. O. Bassset; Union Rebels, Capt. A. D. McLean; Choctawhatchie Volunteers, H. K. Hagan; Florida Guards, R. H. M. Davidson; Gadsden Greys, Capt. Samuel B. Love; Gulf State Infantry, Capt. James C. Evans; Washington County Company, Capt. A. McMillan, of which regiment J. J. Finley is colonel A. D. McLean lieutenant-colonel, and D. L. Kenan major."



Active Service
The 6th Florida Infantry Regiment departed the Mount Vernon Arsenal at Chattahoochee, Florida on June 13, 1862. It would serve from June through August 1862 in the Army of East Tennessee commanded by Major General Edmund Kirby Smith. The Army of East Tennessee was redesignated as the Confederate Army of Kentucky on August 25, 1862, when General Smith led it into eastern Kentucky during the Confederate Heartland Offensive. On November 20, 1862, the Army of Mississippi, General Braxton Bragg commanding, and the Army of Kentucky, General E. Kirby Smith commanding, became the Army of Tennessee. General Bragg assumed command, and General Smith was reassigned to the Department of East Tennessee. The 6th Florida would remain assigned to the Army of Tennessee for the remainder of the war (under General Braxton Bragg through December 27, 1863; under General Joseph E. Johnston from December 27, 1863 to July 18, 1864; under General John B. Hood from July 18, 1864 through January 23, 1865; under Major General Richard Taylor from January 23 to February 23, 1865: and again under General Joseph E. Johnston from February 23 to April 26, 1865.).

Surrender
From April 8 to the 10th, General Johnston reorganized the army, consolidating dozens of shrunken regiments and brigades. Containing fewer soldiers than an understrength battalion, the remnants of the Florida Brigade were united to form the 1st Florida Infantry Regiment, Consolidated - 1st Florida Infantry & 3rd Florida Infantry (consolidated)(Capt. A. B. McLeod); 1st Florida Cavalry (dismounted) and 4th Florida Infantry (consolidated) (Capt George B. Langford); 6th Florida Infantry (Lieut. Malcolm Nicholson); 7th Florida Infantry (Capt. Robert B. Smith). Company H of the original 6th Florida Infantry, along with companies E, F, G, I, and K, would be consolidated to form Company E of the 1st Florida Infantry Regiment.

On April 18, General Joseph E. Johnston signed an armistice with General William T. Sherman at Bennett’s Place near Durham, and on April 26, formally surrendered his army. Of the 100-plus men who mustered into Confederate service on April 2, 1862 at the Mount Vernon Arsenal at Chattahoochee, Florida, only 7 "Union Rebels" were present. On May 1, 1865, five days after General Johnston surrendered the force under his command, the troops of the 1st Florida Infantry, Consolidated, were paroled.
