Walker's 2nd Tennessee / 5th Confederate Infantry

[Sanssouci]

Gents,
Long shot on this one but looking to see if anyone has some good primary source / historical info on Walker's 2nd Tennessee Infantry - later organized into the 5th Confederate Infantry.

Thanks for the help!

Very Respectfully,
John "Red" Turner

John, have a look at the Military Annals of Tennessee Vol. 1 there is a little info about these fellows, including the quote below.

"Nine tenths of rank and file of the regiment (2nd TN.) were wild Irishmen"
