I am researching the 1862 Cumberland Gap Campaign and, while I do not believe Walker's Brigade was part of that action, I do believe some of those regiments were involved at Mill Springs in January of 1862.

Walker to move his command to Knoxville and I'm trying to figure out just what his command was exactly.<br /><br />Source for claim: War of the Rebellion, SERIES I--VOLUME IV [S# 4] CHAPTER XII. pg470<br /><br />http://ebooks.library.cornell.edu/cgi/t/text/pageviewer-idx?c=moawar&cc=moawar&idno=waro0004&node=waro0004%3A3&view=image&seq=478&size=100Wayne Fielderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08109432067512226813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8467438259022514380.post-91659496314353834622011-05-10T15:24:07.860-07:002011-05-10T15:24:07.860-07:00Interesting.
