I think it is not correct to say that the state of TN (or VA) disbanded their militia prewar. Certainly in TN's case, the militia of Memphis were called into service early in the war to keep order there.

As to information on the TN militia: the TN state archives has a card catalog of prewar militia officers. And the laws of TN denote the militia brigade organization by county.
