Interesting capsule history of the 3rd NC Mounted Infantry below: http://www.nctroops.com/3usmnt.htm You would need to send for George W. Kirk's compiled service record at NARA to possibly know if he was not listed as absent from his unit on the day questioned. Even then there's no proof positive, as not such record of every soldier's whereabouts kept.

Kirk Hi List, I was wondering if anyone knew if George W. Kirk was with his regiment, the 3rd NC Mounted Infantry, during their raid on Waynesville NC in early February 1865. ==== CIVIL-WAR Mailing List ==== To search our list archives since 1996, go to http://searches2.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/listsearch.pl and enter Civil-War in the list name .
