There are some of those soldiers who served in the 1st New Orleans (Union) who enlisted in Confederate units first but never reported. Then, they enlisted in the 1st NO and served. And then there were some who enlisted and actually served in Confederate units before deserting and enlisting in the 1st NO. Where do they fit?
And yes, I have come across duplications, also, mostly having to do with the various spellings of names.
