Corrections and Additions
Mike Day adds interesting information on Private W. M. Day. He was captured at Vicksburg, MS July 4, 1863, and paroled there July 15, 1863. Parole was delayed because he was ill at the time of surrender. He was transported by boat to a hospital at Mobile, AL from where his wife and father-n-law came to get him in a wagon and take him home to Cherokee County, GA. He made out his will on August 3, 1863 and died shortly thereafter.
Aaron A. Butler's wife was Rebecca Peden. They married in 1851 in Cobb County. He was born in SC and she in GA. There was a daughter, M. J., in the 1860 census. Aaron died of his wounds and was buried in VA a day or so following the battle. They had George Butler, missionary to Brazil, Samuel I Butler who lived and died in Fulton County, Frances Butler who married a McNeely, and Mary Butler who married Andrew Stewart. Anne R. Bruce
My name is Carroll M. Lawson. I am a direct descendent of William Spencer Lawson and John Ledford Lawson, both Civil war Veterans from Milton Co. Ga.
Spencer Lawson, wounded in the head and captured at Gettysburg, PA. July 3,1863, transferred to West Bldgs Hospital, Baltimore and died there Sept, 5-6 1863. Co. E 22nd GA. Warsaw Rebels, Full Name was William Spencer Lawson. His spouse was Sarah Melvina Sealy not MARTHA E. That pension record is for a totally separate individual.
William Turner Lawson, Oldest son of Spencer Lawson was also in Co.E 22nd Ga. He survived the war and surrendered at Appamattox Court house. He was present at Gettysburg when his father was wounded and thought he had been killed. He married Emily Mary Haney, moved to Drew County Arkansas and lived a long and productive Life.
John Ledford Lawson, 2nd son of Spencer Lawson, enlisted in Co. C 42nd Ga. at a very young age. He was captured at Vicksburg and paroled, then latercaptured near Nashville, sent to Camp Chase and released after the war's end. He married Lois Callandar Wallace, daughter of Absalom Wallace and Lois Raney, on 31 Dec 1865. They also went to Drew County AR. John Ledford Lawson died in Little Rock AR. 9 July 1887.
The Roster of Confederate Soldiers of Georgia 1861-1865, Henderson, page 968 lists , four Lawsons, Lesel, who was the son of Sion Lawson, Spencer Lawson, my GG Grandfather, William Lawson wounded at Seven Pines, and W.T. Lawson surrendered at Appomattox , VA. William Lawson and W.T. Lawson are the same individual, W.T. (William Turner) Lawson wrote a short autobiography which was published in The Goodspeed Biographical of Historical Memoirs of Southern Arkansas. Pub 1890., Page 960.
If you care for a copy of any of this material, I'll be happy to supply it.
John Ledford's widow applied for her pension in AR. and was granted. She is buried here in the old section of the local cemetery, with her Son, my Grandfather, his wife and their youngest son who was KIA on Iwo Jima, WW II

Reavis, John P. Wife Rosana. Private. Co. B, Cherokee Legion GA Cavalry.
Revis, Thomas J. P. Wife Nancy. Private. Roll to April 30, 1862, shows him absent, detached to guard prisoners from Knoxville, TN, April 20th. No later record. Co. C., 42nd Regiment, Forsyth and Milton Counties, GA,Milton Tigers.
The above are in your site.
The correct spelling is Reavis.
John and Thomas were brothers.
John is buried in the Boiling Springs Cemetery, near Alpheretta. He died in 1864. His wife was Rosanna Harris.
Thomas Jefferson Parks Reavis was married to Nancy Deverell. They are my g grandparents. Thomas was also in the 3rd Georgia Cavalry as shown in the Roster of Confederate soldiers. He is buried in Bee House, Coryell Co., Texas and has a CW tombstone showing the 3rd Ga Cav. Co.
Thomas and family are in the 1860 (Alphretta) and 1870 (Freemansville)Milton Co., Ga census.

My grandmother left "Roswell Factory, Milton Co." with her parents William R. and Francis Kent in about 1869, arriving in Blount Co. Al. in time for the 1870 census. Her obituary said she was from Milton Co. but Roswell historically seems a part of about four counties. I spent about four hours last week researching the Ga. census for them. Then I stumbled on to your page and you had them in 1860, 1870 and 1880. I have 1850 and I will try to get 1840.
I would like to amend your list of CW vets as far as the Kents go. You list Columbus J. Kent and Francis Kent as being with the Ga. 42nd. I obtained from the net a list of the 42nd and it listed Francis (Frank) and also my ggrandfather William. I will have to do some more checking but if you find anything please let me know.
Thanks again, Dean Ratliff

I would like to add two more soldiers of Co. B, 38th Georgia Vol. Infantry to the Milton County Civil War soldiers list.
HAGOOD, Simpson Asbury, enlisted as Private 6 Oct 1861, elected lieutenant in December 1862, captured Mar 25, 1865. Imprisoned at Ft. Delaware. Released June 17, 1865.
HAGOOD, Levi Garrison, enlisted as Private, wounded at 2nd Manassas,captured at Chester Station, Va. April 3, 1865. Imprisoned at Hart's Island, NY. Released June 15, 1865.
Above information comes from Lillian Henderson's "Roster of Confederate Soldiers from Georgia".
I would like to submit the below information to the Milton County Web Page (Civil War Soldiers from Milton County). Although George W. Tatum served in a Cobb County unit during the Civil War, he lived in Milton County after the war and raised his family there. He married a Milton County girl, Sarah Ann Dodd and had 11 children, all born in Milton County. Many of the descendants of George W. and Sarah A. Tatum remained in Milton County.
George W. Tatum. George was a Private in Company F, 56th Regiment, Georgia Volunteer Infantry, Cobb County. He enlisted on 10 May 1862 as the 56th Regiment was being formed. After receiving training at Camp McDonald in Cobb County, GA the Regiment was assigned to Cummings Brigade of Brigadier General Carter Steven's Division, Army of Tennessee, CSA. His Georgia CSA pension records filed from Milton County show he was wounded and disabled at Vicksburg, Mississippi on 16 June 1863. A bullet entered his right thigh fracturing his hip. He surrendered with his unit at Vicksburg on 4 July 1863 and was paroled on 8 July 1863 and exchanged/released on 19 July 1863. After returning to the CSA Army he was discharged from the Army for his disability. He suffered from his wounds and disability for the rest of his life.
