Thomas Thompson - Private
|
From what I can gather from sources on the Internet, my Great Great Grandfather Thomas Thompson joined Company H of the 47th Georgia Infantry at the tender age of 19 along with his two younger brothers John Andrew Thompson (18) and Berry Thompson (17) in March 1862. Thomas and John Andrew were supposedly wounded at the Battle of Missionary Ridge outside Chattanooga in late 1863, whereas the youngest brother, Berry, served until surrendered with the rest of the regiment and all those under the command of Joseph E. Johnston at Durham Station in North Carolina in April 1865. I would like to know if anyone has any further information such as diaries, letters, photographs or even a regimental history.
