In Response To: 57th Georgia at Gettysburg? ()

There is a number 51 above the 57th Georgia indicating that this unit may have been the 51st Georgia and they were at Gettysburg suffering 25% casualties. However, there is not a Terry listed in the 51st Georgia. It is plausible that General Schoepf at the time and later General Ainsworth while making the CMSR's copied General Schoepf's mistake. If Terry was captured at the Gettysburg campaign then he may have been with the 51st Georgia although they do not carry him on their rosters. If Terry was captured as an example at Big Black, Mississippi then his capture site was incorrect and he was with the 57th Georgia.
