(I could word this better, but...):
I am not familiar with the Appomattox Campaign in particular. I know that the Confederate command was pretty spread out and units organized under one formation were assigned to other formations (Like how Kershaw's divisions was assigned to Ewell's command along with the his miscellaneous division of artillerists, militia and sailors, all of which were captured at Sayler's Creek). I presume this was due to the dispositions of troops at the time of the abandonment of the capital and Petersburg. Could I get more detail as to which divisions were where and who's "column" they were assigned to?
