wrong answer on the Jews. they were 4th largest.

there were at least 100,000 blacks, about 50,000 indians (my ancestor was one of them) & about 40,000 latinos (mostly Mexican or Cuban nationality)that served the CSA.

the vast majority of "non-white" CSA veterans were either in state military formations, in "privately raised" formations OR partisan rangers.
