I'm especially interesting in information regarding Ellis Watford’s service, death and personal information. He served with the 33rd Alabama Infantry, Company B. He enlisted on 3 Nov 1862 at Clayton, Alabama and died in service from small pox. Ellis was born 21 Sept 1843, Dale County to Nelson Watford and May Taylor Watford.



If you have any information regarding Dempsey, Sarah, Mary or the Watfords and their descendents, especially, Ellis Watford, please let me know.
