Witnesses Wesley W. Hill, P.Z. Hill and Z.J. Mott (each known to said attesting
officer as truthful, reliable and reputable citizens), who severally say under
oath, that from their own personal knowledge, Mrs. Betsy A. Mott, of the County

reason of said service in the Army, he lost his life as follows:  That while in
battle at Ocean Pond in the State of Florida he was shot and killed by the enemy. 

We further swear that Betsy A. Mott was the wife of said soldier during the
service and that she has not remarried since his death and that she resides in

Additional Comments:
Enlistment date is in error, muster rolls consistently reflect enlistment date
of Aug 15, 1863. 

NOTE:
P.Z. Hill was P(reserved) Z(arve) Hill, thus the reason
he went by P.Z.  He and Wesley were brothers.  Both
sons of Archibald Hill.  Wesley served in Co. A, 28th
Ga Siege Artillery and P.Z. served Co. B, 64th Ga Inf.
