Re: 103% Casualties of the 9th Battn. MS Sharpshoo

Jim,

I sure would like to see that list since many of my 7th Miss. men were later members of the 9th Battn. Miss. Sharpshooters. What that article does not tell is how many of the battalion rejoined the men of Sharp's Brigade who had been furloughed after Franklin and travelled to NC in March to join Johnston. Thankfully they arrived too late to participate in any more actions and surrendered with the Brigade before any more of these brave men could become casualties. Their commander I believe was the commanding officer for the Consolidated 9th Regt.
