Re: More references to Chickasaw Bluffs ...

The August 1921 issue of the Confederate Veteran has an article about the state of TN allowing pensions to the "Negroe" troops. At the time of the article, there were 47 of them drawing Confederate pensions in TN and more had applied.

The article went on to say that other Southern states would doubtless follow suit. It was reported in the article that Levi Miller of Virginia drew a Confederate pension until he died in 1921.

Reading the old issues, you can find several instances of mention of black Confederates.
