Morehead's service file does not mention a Conscript Bureau, but I suppose that doesn't exclude his participation. Was this a state or Confederate entity? The fact that "Morehead's Rangers" turns up in the Troy area is significant, however. Based on what I know already, I'm willing to bet that Morehead died in Troy, if that's where these three companies were in or around November 1863.Conscript Bureau — Alan Pitts, Tue Jan 23 16:42 Morehead — Chris Nelson, Tue Jan 23 18:31 Morehead — Homer Jones, Wed Jan 24 01:29 Morehead — Chris Nelson, Wed Jan 24 10:51
