Does anybody have an idea what uniforms the 58th would have been issued? North Carolina was good at clothing its Eastern theatre troops, but I dont know about the AoT units. The 58th was from the mountains of northwestern North Carolina and didn't see major action until Chickamauga. The only mention of their uniforms I could find was a mention of the regiment bieng in rags and barefooted when reveiwed in October of 1863 because they had not been resupplied since they were out of their home state. When they were supplied, would it been with NC depot items, or Columbus, Atlanta, or another western depot? Thanks.
