William Cole Civil War Record

William Cole was my second great grandfather.  It is believed that he served in the 37th Tennessee Infantry (Confederate) in the Civil War.  There was a William Cole who served in the 37th Tennessee Infantry (Confederate), and this is his military record.  There is not enough information in the record to indicate whether this particular William Cole was mine or not.
