Who can locate this young soldier? - Mrs. Helen M. Long, President of the Newnan (Ga.) Chapter, U.D.C. writes:
"During the summer of 1863 or 1864 a young soldier was carried to the home of Maj. Hugh Brewster, at Newnan, Ga., sick from fever. He died there and was buried in the family lot. All that was ever known of him was just his name - Lieutenant Paine (or Payne). Last summer the Newnan Chapter marked his grave with a headstone in keeping with those who sleep in Soldiers' Square. It may be that some relative or friend, through the Veteran, can locate the long-missing soldier boy."
I've also added Lt. Payne to Oak Hill Cemetery thinking that someone might do a search under either name.
