Check the below birthdate. I think it should read 1828, especially since I don't think he married at the age of 12. Olivia > COLEMAN, Welcome Lafayette, Emanuel Co. Private > b.08/10/1838 GA d.11/04/1890 Emanuel GA Farmer

Here are further notes and information about Charles Mathew Coleman's war record. Marilyn Lear In the marriage record, he was called "of Johnson County." He enlisted in Company H, 48th Regiment Georgia Infantry, as a Private on March 4, 1862. He received a disability discharge on April 26, 1862 at Charleston, SC. He also served in Savannah as Georgia and Carolina built their defenses. He then enlisted in Company G, 32nd Regt. Georgia Infantry. He married Calsie soon after returning from the war. On August 3, 1907 in Emanuel County, he applied for a Civil War pension, which was later granted. Charles's grave is marked as a Mason. His obituary states he was licensed to preach for over 40 years and was active at Ebenezer Church. He and his wife are buried at Coleman Chapel. [SFB 1916] Information on his descendants was taken largely from The Colemanac 1750-1976, by Arthur Clinton Coleman and the federal census. 1880: Charls M.
