[Confederate Muster Roll for Edward T. Murphey, 1862]
[Contributor's note: I once thought this was Edmond T. Murphey trying to 
fool the yankees, but now believe it is actually Edward T., who was mentioned
in the will of Esther Murphey, 3 Oct 1871]

  The 48th (Voorhies') Regiment Tennessee Infantry was organ-

Miss., September 23, 1862, and immediately re-organized; and de-
clared exchanged at Aiken's Landing, Va., November 10, 1862. The
portion that escaped capture formed a part of the 48th (Nixon's)
Regiment Tennessee Infantry from April, 1862, until December 1,
1862, when they were returned to their original command.  The
remainder of the 48th (Nixon's) Regiment Tennessee Infantry
was transferred to this regiment by S.F.O. No. 46, Hdqrs. Army
