Name Battle Harrison Timmons Notes
Died of an illness while serving in the Civil War at the battle of
Murfreesboro, Tenn.
There was a Harrison Timmons, age 11, living with a Catherine Mouser
(possibly an aunt?) in Fayette County in 1850. If this is Battle H.
Timmons, this would mean that he was born about 1839. Battle Timmons was
obviously named for Battle Harrison (also spelled Battael), a relative of
William Henry Harrison and a famous politician of that era and of that
area.
