"Edward Nathaniel Badger would prove himself as one of the most reliable and effective officers in the Florida Brigade. Born in SC in Jan. 1841, Badger resided in Ocala with his father, Dr. James Badger, and attended the East Florida Seminary located in that town. He left school in Oct. 1856 during the Third Seminole Indian War and, lying about his age, enlisted in a volunteer cavalry company. In early 1861, Badger joined Lieutenant Colonel Angus McLean as an alum of the Cumberland University Law School. After spending a year as the 4th Florida's adjutant, Badger, at age 21, became its third-in-command."
