Peter M Quatoo or quittow - Private |

French-Canadian by birth, Peter went mostly by the name Peter Morris in the USA but enlisted on 10 Dec. 1864 as Peter M. Quatoo and also appears on muster rolls of Company G as Quittow. Both are efforts by anglophone record-keepers to transcribe his French name (Coitou) as he spoke it.
