Henry Jackson Hallman

He enrolled on 15 September 1861 and enlisted as Private, Company I, 26th Alabama Infantry on 3 August at Fayette Court House.

He was captured in action at Sharpsburg on 17 September 1862.

He was exchanged on 11 November 1862 and was wounded and captured at Chancellorsville, VA on 3 May 1863. He was exchanged on 9 May, sent to a hospital in Richmond, VA, and then home on 30 day furlough on 5 June. He must have returned to duty before the furlough had expired, because he was wounded and captured again, at Gettysburg, PA on 1 July 1863. He was in a hospital in Baltimore, MD with no further military record.

By 1870 he was a chair maker at North Port, Tuscaloosa County, AL with Hallman neighbors on both sides. In 1907 he was living in Tuiscaloosa.

His service from Fincham's roster,1 sourced from Tod L. Molsworth's O'Neal's 26th Alabama: the Little Regiment that Did (2000). Personal details from family genealogists, the US Census of 1870, and the Alabama Census of Confederate Veterans (1907). His gravesite is on Findagrave; his stone has his birth year as 1831, probably in error.

He married Margaret "Margie" Taylor (1838-1920) and they had a daughter Sallie Marie.
