Medical Officers GA brigade of ANV

My GG Granduncle was Dr. Robert G. Holloway, Ast. Surgeon (promoted to Surgeon 4/1/1865)serving with the 38th GA infantry in the Georgia Brigade, Army of Northern Virginia. I just learned that his cousin (and soon to be brother-in-law) Dr. Thomas B. Amiss served in the 35th GA Infantry and Dr. William Amiss (brother of Thomas B. Amiss) was a surgeon in "another GA infantry reg.) Three surgeons, two brothers and one cousin all in the same brigade. Anyone have information on the Dr.'s Amiss.? They preformed a remarkable opperation (for the time) on a Maj. Snowden Andrews of Baltimore, saving his life. The Amiss brothers found Maj. Andrews left for dead and disembowelled by a shell fragment. This opperation happened after he battle of Ceader Mountain. Looking for pictures and service records etc.
