Edit - The main question is open to a wide variety of different interpretations. Does "fallen" refer strictly to those killed in action, or those killed in action plus mortally wounded, or killed in action plus wounded (whether mortally or not), or killed in action plus wounded plus died from disease, or something else? And is the question asking about the state from which the fallen Confederates came, or the state in which they fell?
I think I'm going to have to accept answers based on whatever interpretation any player intends to use. If you can specify how you interpreted the question and supply a source supporting your answer based on that interpretation, that'll be great, but nobody will be penalized for failing to specify an interpretation or supply a source.
