[wolfduke38 at comcast.net]

Well Killed in action would be North Carolina at 1403 killed, however total killed, wounded, missing, or captured belongs to New York at 6700 compared to North Carolina's 6127

New York 967 Killed
                 3968 wounded
                 1765 missing
                 6700 total
North Carolina 1403 killed
                        3349 wounded
                        1375 missing
                        6127 total
I hope that helps and you can get all this wonderful info in a little pocket sized book called Gettysburg by the numbers Compiled by Charles Teague.
