That's exactly what happened to my great-grandfather and his brother. James Olin Bradfield, born December 2, 1843 in Troup County, Georgia, served in Company E, 1st Texas Regiment, Hood's Brigade, Longstreet's Corp, Army of Norhern Virginia. His younger brother John served in Company F of the 4th Texas. All I have is the bare bones, nothing at all about where they went or how they got there and home again.
