His records contain his handwritten request for leave of absence and is found in M331 Compiled Service Records of Confederate General and Staff Officers, and Nonregimental Enlisted Men. I checked the records of the Sixth Cavalry (Stone's Regiment, Second Cavalry) M323 Roll 37, he is not listed there nor have I been able to locate any records of James S. Pippin.

You may procure his records at the site noted in the advertisement in the red enclosed box above.
