Hi, I am trying to find out who was the fist colonel of the 60th Georgia and I do know who the Lieutenant Colonel William H. Stiles, Sr. and Major Thomas J. Berry are.
I show a Colonel Waters B. Jones also in command, but don't know if he preceded Stiles, Sr. or came after him. At some point Thomas J. Berry made Lt. Col. also.
Stiles was promoted to Colonel in June or July of 1862 and then Major Berry was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel and Waters B. Jones was promoted to Major in 1863. Also NPS list just Berry, Jones and Stiles as the regiment's officers.
