1st Conf. Inf. Regt.

After doing a little bit of quick internet research on the 1st Confederate Infantry Regiment, I come to the conclusion that there is a very high likelihood that Hopkins T. of the 1st Conf. Inf. Regt. is the same as H.T. of the 62nd Ala. Inf. [which as you know, was formerly a reserve unit].
The 1st Conf. was partially composed of men from Alabama. It was particularly hard hit at Chickamauga [Dec. 1863]. So, it is very possible that this man was sent home as disabled, and placed in the Reserves. This would be in the correct timeframe of 1864.
What I can't remember for sure, off the top of my head, is whether the 62nd was composed primarily of Jr. or Sr. reserves.
