Henry Ledford is the brother of my 3rd great-grandfather. He was murdered in 1866 (allegedly over his Union sympathies, haven't found documentation for the murder motive but his Union regiment is found right on his tombstone). Henry was the 4th son of John and Sarah Patterson Ledford and served in both the Confederate and Union services with three of his brothers, including my 3rd great-grandfather (their oldest brother may have also served however he had married by the Civil War and did not share the almost exact same service as these four brothers did).
Henry is buried in Jasper City Cemetery in Jasper, GA.
