• Notes

  At least two of Williams Yates' "orphaned" sons participated by enlisting in the Army of the Confederate States of America (Richmond, Virginia, was the capitol city of the new country): • Charles Patty Yates (17 years of age in 1861) enlisted on June 6, 1861, was a "Private" assigned to the 21st Regiment of Company A of the Campellton Home Guards of the Georgia Volunteer Infantry of the Army of the Confederate States of America. He was subsequently "killed-inaction" (KIA) at the Battle of Chancellorsville (May 2 - 5, 1863), Virginia, on May 3, 1863 (at the age of 19). He is buried in an unmarked mass grave. The Union Army documented it's dead soldiers and provided them with a decent burial, but with the "rebels", it just dug a hole and dumped the enemy bodies into it.
