Notes for George A. Laughter:
Lived in Holmes Co., MS 1850, -- Phillips Co., AR 1860.
Served in the 15th Reg't AR Infantry under Col. P. R. Cleburne.
Wounded in leg in battle of Liberty Gap, TN on 8 Aug 1863*.
Died of wounds in hospital: Corinth, MS. --
* This shows him dying before he was wounded?

NOTE: [Its probable and most likely that the 8 Aug 1863 date for George's battle wound should be 8 Jun 1863. That would be 16 days before his recorded DOD on 24 Jun 1863. The Tullahoma Campaign that included the Battle of Liberty Gap was conducted June 23 - July 3, 1863 and although the "official" dates for the campaign are after 8 June, there were many heavy skirmishes leading up to the main event.
