I am interested in hearing from anyone who's ancestor served in this regiment. I also have information on Lt. Lemuel Hall who served as it's medical officer

I am not related to Dr. Hall, but I do have some information on him.

He was listed as an 'inmate'(soldier) at Beauvoir Soldier's Home, as a widower from March 24,1916 until his death at Beauvoir on Feb 20,1927. He was buried on Feb 21,1927 in Section B, Row 4, Grave #158 under the name of Thomas J. Jordan. (resources are Beauvoir Soldier's Home Records, and MS Confederacy Grave Records).
