Facts and Conjectures concerning William Sutton's service during the Civil War.
The Death and Interment record from the CSA Service Records shows that William P. Sutton of the 50th VA INF is the son of Eliza Sutton of Pulaski Co., VA. The 50th VA INF by John Chapla also shows a "William Sutton" that Chapla identifies with William Sutton, son of Eliza Sutton. This is evident by the 1860 Census information he cites (living, age 16, in Pulaski Co.). The Census only lists one Sutton family in Pulaski County, VA in 1860 and this family has one son named William. Looking at the two 50th VA INF William Suttons, it is possible that they are both William Sutton, the son of Eliza.
"William Sutton" enlists as a Private in 1861 and serves until the battle Gettysburg in 1863 where he is listed as killed in action. "William P. Sutton" is first listed as "Enlisted, promoted to 2nd Sgt. by Mar. 31, 1864 when present in unit." Less than two months later, he is wounded and captured in the battle at Spotsylvania Court House. He dies as a prisoner of war in Washington, D. C. on Mar. 30, 1864.
It is possible that "William Sutton's" death at Gettysburg was actually a wound that caused a separation from his regiment to recover. When he returned, he was promoted to Sergeant. After this promotion he was then referred to in the service records as "William P. Sutton." This change from "William Sutton" to "William P. Sutton" would have caused the compilers of the unit's roster to put down two William Suttons. More research is needed to confirm this. It would explain why William P. Sutton's first record is his promotion to Sergeant.
