    1. Re: [TNCANNON] Cannon County Confederates
    2. balty
    3. There were probably many Cannon Cty residents who joined the Confederate Army in neighboring counties. My ggrandfather, Joseph Baltimore and his brother Phillip, were soldiers who were at one time members of Co E, 2d Bn, Tenn Inf. No proof, but I believe they joined in McMinnville, Warren Cty. The only notable record of my ggrandfather is the time he went AWOL. Additionally, did any Cannon Cty men join the Union Army?

    3. 1 Baltimore, J.A. Confederate Infantry 22nd Battalion, Tennessee Infantry (Murray's) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2 Baltimore, Phillip Confederate Infantry 22nd Battalion, Tennessee Infantry (Murray's) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 22nd Infantry Battalion was organized in January, 1863, with nine companies. The men were from the counties of White, Bledsoe, Warren, Van Buren, Putnam, and Smith. It joined the Army of Tennessee after the Battle of Murfreesboro and was placed in General M.J. Wright's Brigade. However, that summer the unit merged into the 38th Tennessee Infantry Regiment. Major Thomas B. Murray was in command.
