Albert Gallatin Watson - Private
Albert Gallatin Watson enlisted March 22, 1862. He was wounded in the Battle of Peachtree Creek (north of Atlanta) and lost most of his arm. His one surviving grandson tells us that he was put on a boxcar with other dying men, and sent into the city of Jonesboro, Ga. where a black couple happened to see him. They pulled him from the train and nursed him back to health. He survived the war and was retired from duty 12/29/64. The grandson remembers Albert wrapping the reins on his mule around his stump to plow his fields. He went on to become a Probate Judge and died in 1907. Buried in Talledega, Alabama.
