Tom --
Guess I'll have to look at this man military service file again to remind myself of what's there.
To review, Needham Temples appears on roll with Co. "E", 37th Mississippi Regiment. During the late summer and early fall of 1862 (when Temples died) that command remained inside Mississippi. I'm sure you are familiar with Dunbar Roland's history of this regiment --

Is this man also on roll with Clayton's "Jasper Defenders"?
