Book says Nathaniel Holmes was admitted to hospital in Cassville, Georgia 11/8/64. That was about the time the 63rd was rapidly moving west towards Florence for the initiation of the Tennessee campaign. They were in Florence on Nov 19, 1864 give or take a day. Note says he was also "sick at hospital 3/20/64. From his enlistment date of 3/31/62, he was likely in battle at Chickamauga. Also a note AWOL 9/5-11/20/63 so he must have been in or around Chickamauga. Not good timing.
