 Men often enlisted in a company recruited in the counties where they lived though not always. After many battles, companies might be combined because so many men were killed or wounded. However if you are unsure which company your ancestor was in, try the company recruited in his county first.
-All of the companies changed letters when mustered into Confederate service. In the list below the letters used in Confederate service are shown, with prior letters indicated. <ref>http://www.tngenweb.org/civilwar/csainf/csain22.htm TNGenWeb Project Tennesseans in the Civil War, (accessed 22 Oct 2011).</ref>
