I was recently trying to find any battles that occurred near Courtland, AL, where Reese H. Horton died. I found a site that chronicled the infantry division that Reese was in. They fought at Shiloh and went on to fight at some of the major battles in the South including Lookout Mountain, Missionary Ridge, and Chickamauga. From the date that Reece died, I think he may have been wounded at Shiloh and left at a Confederate Army hospital in Courtland when the CSA came down through Tuscumbia after Shiloh. Since I cant find anything to indicate where he may have been buried, I think he is probably in an unmarked grave with other CSA soldiers in Courtland.
