Hey, David. Thanks for the links. Welcome. Stop by and see us at the Railroads and Steam Locomotives forum.

 

[DixieRifles]

Thanks for the links. I plan to add them to my Browser links.

Ive always been interested about any regiment or battle related to Mississippi. So this will help me in my future research.

Thanks for the links @Ole Miss my family has a lot of history in Mississippi, my Great Grandmother donated her moms photo collection to the MDAH. BTW my Dad was a KA at Ole Miss and I have found memories of The Grove on game day. Hoddy Toddy

[7th Mississippi Infantry]

I missed the article about the Confederate cemetery in hottytoddy.com, I normally glance at that site a few times per week.
http://hottytoddy.com/2014/08/06/confederate-cemetery-speaks-to-compassion-of-oxford-tragedy-of-war

As late as the early 2000's, many students and alumni were not even aware of the cemetery.

 

[Ole Miss]

The cemetery is in an old section of campus that is off the beaten path. It is just yards from the Tad Smith Coliseum but as 7th Mississippi posted many are not aware of its existence. The poignant aspect of this small cemetery is that it is just one of many small out of the way resting spots for many forgotten and unknown soldiers spread throughout the former Confederacy along with a few in West Virginia and one in Wisconsin.
The University of Mississippi's Center for Civil War Research has published a list of the cemeteries on its website listed below. I also included another site dealing with the Confederate Memorials on the Ole Miss campus which seems rather timely in light of the actions by the city of Memphis, TN tonight also listed below.

Dave, by all means post what you have on the public forums !

Unit research is one of the main reasons people join CivilWarTalk.

We even have a forum dedicated to regimental histories:

I thought I would post a couple of sites to see if they would be of value to those researching Mississippi units

Welcome @Ole Miss! You arrived bearing some great Christmas gifts. The links are terrific! Thanks David!

This is also a good source on Mississippi units: https://www.accessgenealogy.com/mil...il-war-regiments-rosters-and-muster-rolls.htm

Most of the regiments listed there contain detailed histories from Dunbar Rowland's Military History of Mississippi, 1803-1898.


And here are a few other sites I had bookmarked:

History of the 46th Mississippi Infantry: http://lauderdale.msghn.org/military/civilwar/fortysixth/fortysixthregimenthistoryprelude.html

History of Co. K, 27th Mississippi Infantry: https://archive.org/stream/historyofcompany00jarm#page/n5/mode/2up

Hardee flag of the 32nd & 45th Mississippi Infantry: http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~mscivilw/32_45ConsolidatedFlagAbstract-060508.pdf

 

[Ole Miss]

These are web sites I have found while searching so they may be of little use but I always find gems in the readings

Sorry I haven't been back on here - Wow! I have a lot of things to check out. My research covers several states but MS is one that I often avoid because there are so many of "my boys" there and many of them have the same first name - makes it a little bit of a mess and I don't have as much time for my research as I'd like - but do any of us?? I will be sure to go through as many of these as possible. Thanks for posting and keep it coming! Feel free to message me too if you'd like.
