Also, does that number include Mississippians serving in Union units based in other states? For example, I have some (read: "more than I care to admit") relatives who were born and raised in Mississippi but chose to enlist in the 1st New Orleans Infantry, which was a Union unit, and then returned home to Mississippi after their discharge. When you search for them on the NPS site, you have to select "Louisiana" as their state and not Mississippi even though they were not from Louisiana.
