Robert T. Buchanan

The military record for Robert T. Buchanan shows that he deserted from Co. B 50th TN on or about 29 Dec. 1862. That would be the Battle of Chickasaw Bayou. That is the extent of the NARA military record, but there is no evidence that he returned home prior to 1864. Does anyone have another reference source for learning if he served in a partisan or homeguard unit. He was from Dover, TN.
