Priestly H. Cozart - Private
|
Have no information on this distant relative. The surname Cozart is one of the more common of the hundred or so variants of the original surname Cossart. Priestly H. is the same person as P. H. Cozart serving in Co. G, 45th GA Infantry. He served some 5 months and was discharged for 'disability.' There is another (sergeant) P. H. Cozart in Capt. Green's Co., Georgia Infantry, State Armory Guards. Is this Priestly, too? Would appreciate learning any information others may have on Priestly.

Marion Anderson, 1832-1918, enlisted with his brothers DC and Jesse Anderson from Telfair County, GA. He was wounded in the shoulder at Gettysburg and was either discharged or furloughed home after that (his daughter Ann was born in 1864). Family lore says he did not have the Yankee minnie ball removed from his shoulder until 18 years after. I am still searching for more information concerning his service record.
