18th KY Inf Losses at Richmond

Can anyone tell me, with names,ranks,and Co.'s, the KIA and WIA suffered at the Battle of Richmond, 30 AUG 1862?

Of all of the following stats, I have names,ranks,etc.(all of the above): 41KIA, 103WIA, with at least eight of the WIA dying of their wounded. Yet I have heard from a pretty good source that they actually lost 52KIA and 115WIA. I'm calling especially on two highly esteemed scholars on the subject:Mr.Anthony Hawkins and Mr.David L.Bush. Please, Sirs, can you help me out? I have the same list as Dr.Hawkins, oops, Mr.,(Just saying how it should be. The depth of your research for "Of Savage Fury", you deserve your doctorate!), all except, one of the KIA's:I have a Pvt.Sam E.Watkins(same as the CSA's 1st Tenn.Inf., of "Co.Aytch fame", killed in action, Co.I, 18th KY Inf. Can someone help me with the other 11KIA's and 12WIA's, if there are any? Any help would be greatly appreciated, as my work is almost finished, but I Have got to get this right! Thank you.

Sincerely,

SGT Michael J.Gabbard
