Later in the Civil War, October 1864, Noah enlisted under Col. Benjamin Ledford's Regiment GA Militia Calvary as did his brothers Napoleon and Abel who were dropped from the roster of the 29th. Noah served as a Private, Abel as 1st Lieutenant and Napoleon a Major until their unit surrendered in May 1865.

It is speculated the grave at Antioch Baptist Cemetery of N. H. Hill (memorial #9023140) is that of Noah since it is definitely in the Hill family plot. Perhaps an error in his middle initial upon inscription of the original gov't issued headstone.

However without any date of birth or death on the marker it is hard to say. What is known there's no A H Hill that is on the troops roster list of Ledford's Regiment but rather Noah by his first name.
