CSA 10th Infantry

My Ggrandfather, Robert Beresford Isler served in the 10th Infantry, Companies A and D as a drummer and soldier from 1861 until late 1864. He joined up in Jackson, Mississippi along with his cousin, John W. Fite, who later became captain as the war continued. His younger cousin, Thomas Fite and half-brother, Christian Oliver Bosbyshell fought with this group as well for a time. He fought at Shiloh, Chickamauga, Stone's River, Chattanooga and Atlanta among others.

I was able to find two portions of very old books that gave histories of the 10th in the Mississippi State Archives, so I have muster rolls and short paragraphs giving info on each soldier in his company, but as of yet have found no website dealing with this group, or any photographs. Does anyone know of any photographs that exist for the 10th Infantry, especially companies A or D, or websites discussing the 10th?
