Re: Official Records Supplement/7th Battalion

Hello guys, my Great great great grandfather was Lt. AJ farmer of Co. A of the 7th Mississippi battalion upon the formation of the Unit. He was later promoted to Captain and was for a time the commanding of the Battalion during the Atlanta campaign. Command of the battalion was given to someone else after the Atalanta campaign. Where can i look for more info on my ancestor? I know that there are other people interested in him because someone has recently redone his grave marker. I've been looking for info on him in the Official Records of the War of the Rebellion and searching him on Google.
I've also been writing part of a chapter on his death(historical fiction) for a family book. He was mortally wounded at the battle of Allatoona Pass and died in the retreat after the battle. Where else should i look? Where can i get my hands on the "Sketch History of the 7th Mississippi Battalion" and some of the other things you have spoken of?

thanks for any help!
William Farmer
