Alfred B. Davis (indexed as A. B. Davis) enlisted Oct. 9, 1863 at Grove Hill AL. The late enlistment date may have to do with a substitute he employed earlier. At some time Congress disallowed substitutes, and those who remained out on this count had to enlist. He was admitted to the post hospital at Fort Morgan AL w/diarheoa Nov 22, 1863; forwarded to Ross Hospital at Mobile a week later, admitted suffering from acute dystentery. He died there on Dec. 20, 1863, according to the hospital records, although a note in the remarks section says died "at Rolls" on Dec. 18th.

I'll check the "Suggsville Greys" (Co. "D", 2nd Ala.) later....
