Quatermaster Sergeant Nathan R. Ensign is one of my Confederate ancestors. I have had three articles published about the unit in nationally circulated magazines. I have written a history of the unit that is over 400 pages plus a 130 page roster of 849 men who served in the unit based on their service records. I would be interested in contacting anyone who had a relative that served in the 11th Battalion Georgia Light Artillery.

Henry ran to Americus in March 1862 to enlist in the Sumter Artillery to avenge his brother, James's death. He was wounded at Gettysburg and seriously wounded at Reams Station, Virginia
