Maj. Bennett,

In researching the 8th Tennessee, I have never found a clear answer in regard to the regiment's location and activities in late 1863, during the time that Longstreet moved on Knoxville, the city was under seige, and the months following when Longstreet's Corps remained in East Tennessee. It does not appear the 8th Tennessee was in Knoxville, or was in the subsequent actions in late 1863-early 1864; do you know what the regiment's activities were during the period?
