Eric,

I can't find a Joseph W. Nunn Listed in the 34th G.A. .

Here is a list of all known Nunn men in the 34th GA. Infantry. Augustus Nunn was my uncle married my G-Grand mother's sister Minerva L. Anthony.
William T. Nunn was with with my G-Grandfather David A. Bray at the surrender at Greensboro N.C. There were only 14 men in Company H that day.

34th Infantry Regiment, organized in May, 1862, at Camp McDonald, near Marietta, Georgia, recruited its members in the counties of Bartow, Cherokee, Floyd, Polk, Cobb, Paulding, Carroll, Haralson, and Jackson. The unit was sent to Tennessee, then Mississippi where it was assigned to T.H. Taylor's Brigade, Department of Mississippi and East Louisiana. It participated in the battle at Champion's Hill and was captured at Vicksburg on July 4, 1863. Exchanged and reorganized it was placed in General Cummings' Brigade, Army of Tennessee. The 34th was active in many engagements from Chattanooga to Nashville, and ended the war in North Carolina. It reported 34 casualties at Chattanooga, contained 369 men and 266 arms in December, 1863, and had 219 fit for duty in Janaury, 1865. Very few surrendered in April.
