Notes
a. Note:   We know little of Camilla Ann's early years other than being one of eight children. While still at an early age the family moved to Palmetto in Coweta County, GA north of Newman. When she was about 16 years of age, the family moved to Brooks in Fayette County just east of the Coweta County line.
  Camilla attended and graduated from La Grange Female College in La Grange, GA. In those days the trip was some 50 miles requiring 2 days each way. Camilla's trunk would be packed, placed on a buggy and she would be driven to school where she would remain for the entire school year.
  She married Benjamin Hutchinson in 1859 and they established themselves on Benjamin's farm in Coweta County where John Wilbon was born in 1861. Shortly after John's birth, Benjamin mustered in to the Confederate Army in Griffin, GA and later was captured in a battle at Cumberland Gap, TN.
  For a while, Benjamin was held prisoner near Chattanooga. Learning of these circumstances, Camilla Ann with 2 year old John Wilbon boarded a train in Atlanta and went to Chattanooga. There she arranged with the Union Army permission to visit her husband and let him see his young son. Benjamin later was transferred to a Union prison at Fort Douglas, IL, where he remained until the war was over.
  Benjamin WALKED most of the way home to Georgia from Illinois. When his family sighted him approaching home they rushed to meet him but he stopped them short, removed and burned his clothes and asked that a hot bath be prepared - he was covered with lice! Then there was a "homecoming"!
