Colonel Joseph C. Mayo, 3rd Virginia

My research indicates that Colonel Joseph C. Mayo, 3rd Virginia Infantry Regiment was wounded at Antietam.

I am trying to find any additional details, such as when, where, or how he was wounded and anything about what happened after he was wounded. Who replaced him in command of the 3rd Virginia, etc.

Since Colonel Mayo was the next ranking officer in Pryor's brigade after Colonel Hately, I am also trying to identify who assumed command of Pryor's brigade after Hately and Mayo were both wounded.

Any additional information related to Colonel Mayo's wounding at Antietam will be greatly appreciated.
