    3. I know of no books on the subject, however www.civilwar.nps.gov only lists 4 Fay's enrolled in TN units. I checked an alternate Fay spelling derived from on one of these guy's listing, and Fahey yields a Patrick Fahey in the 10th TN INF and a Patrick Fahey in Fisher's Company of Nelson's TN Artillery. It also lists 35 people by the name Patrick Fay who served in the civil war; none of these are noted as from TN, but assuming your Patrick served in a Tennessee unit, I would suggest also looking into the 12th US infantry and the 2nd US Veteran Infantry which may have rostered some folks from TN. Also, if you're ever in that area, I believe the town of Wartrace, TN has a Civil War museum with some information on the area around there. So, did Patrick leave a widow? What was her name? If she ever filed for a widow's pension, she most likely listed his regiment in the application documents. Post her name to the list, I believe I might have access to the index via Ancestry.com, but someone may have access to a better index.
