Carlsen of the "H.L. Hunley."

Can anyone confirm if the J.F. Carlsen, a helmsman aboard the privateer "Jeff Davis," was the same Carlsen who served in the German Artillery, captain Wagener commanding, of Charleston, South Carolina, and was later one of the crew members of the submarine "H.L. Hunley?" Some details are in the Naval Official Records, volume 12, page 309 and volume 15, page 337, but not enough to confirm the data at hand.
