My 3x Grandfather was a confederate soldier. The Tennessee State Library & Archives, sent me a copy of his pension application. (Any soldier who was wounded was eligible, no matter the side).
1. It was neat because I was reading his ACTUAL handwriting and 2, his answer to question 7.
See attached.
Needless to say, he application was DENIED.
Sad they didn’t grant him his request, but I haven’t gone into my family extensively enough to know the answer.
Looks like you’ve done your homework.
