No such regiment or battalion.

Following Malone's 19th, the numbering order for Alabama battalions goes like this:

Waddell's 20th - Artillery
Gibson's 21st - Cavalry (same as 18th Infantry Battn.)
Warren's 22nd - Cavalry
Stallworth's 23rd - Infantry
Snodgrass' 24th - Cavalry
Johnston's 25th - Cavalry

Once in a while you'll see references like this, (i.e., 45th Cav.) which appear to be based on transcription errors. I'd expect Garrett's service record to be filed elsewhere. Does that name index with anything legitimate?
