Battlefield??? I didn't mention one in reference to Winston County.If you are reffering to the website, I couldn't say for sure (it was a story he told his grandchildren), however from the records of the Unit, pension applications, etc. it would likely have been in Georgia near Atlanta.I have a theory, but it would be only theory.According to my grandfather (his granson) he told them it was in GA fighting Sherman.When the unit was there, it was stationed in defense of Atlanta.There are records of skirmishes during that time.
