Pittman Genealogy Notes

North Carolina to Georgia - On February 19, 1806, Abner Pitman of Marion District, South Carolina, was a son of Joseph Pitman of Edgecombe County, North Carolina.  Deed Book 11, Page 561.

Green M. Pittman Enlisted on 8/21/1861 as a Private. On 8/21/1861 he mustered into "I" Co. GA 3rd Infantry. Wounded 7/1/1862 Malvern Hill, VA, Wounded 2/6/1865 Hatcher's Run, VA  Hospitalized Close of war

July 1, 1875
Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel
In the battle of Hatcher's Run, in 1864, Green Pittman, of Wilkinson county, received a wound in the face, the ball entering the upper portion of the nose on the left side. The wound was probed and dressed by an army surgeon, and finally healed up, and although the surgeon stated that the ball was still in the head, Mr. Pittman had almost forgotten it, never having experienced the least pain or inconvenience from it. In 1869, one Sunday morning in February, five years after receiving the wound, as Mr. Pittman was making his toilet to attend church, it fell out of his mouth. Mr. Pittman was combing his hair at the time, standing perfectly erect, and came near swallowing the ball after it fell into his mouth. Strange to say, no hemorrhage followed its exit nor was there any pain felt. The ball weight one ounce and two pennyweights. It is now in possession of Mr. Pittman, who was a gallant member of the Third Georgia Regiment during the war."
