Pension application of Mrs. M. E. Albritton on line courtesy of GA virtual vault says she is the widow of L.L. Albritton who died in Nashville, Ga on Aug 8, 1896. She says he served in Co. E. 54th Ga Reg. and was 3rd Lt.
She married him on 6 Jan 1857, but marriage certificate only lists her as M. E. Mobley.
I am assuming he is buried here with older Albritton's since can find nothing to indicate burial.
The Tifton Gazette gives his obit only a line on August 21, 1896, but does not list burial.
In the Tifton Gazette, May 10, 1901, L.L. Albritton is listed as Orderly Sergeant of Co. E. 54th Ga Regt. which left Berrien Co. Ga on May 5, 1862, for Savannah and helped with unit organization.

...his wife was Mary Elizabeth Mobley, born about 1837.
His wife was Mary Elizabeth Byrd, the daughter of Nathan W. Byrd and Ellenor L. B. Gay. from Rhodene Frederick

DEATH OF L. L. ALBRITTON.
An Old and Respected Citizen of Berrien Sleeps the Long Sleep.
NASHVILLE, GA., Aug. 12.----
About 10 o'clock on the 8th inst. Mr. L. L. Albritton, of Nashville, departed from earth's troubles. He was a worthy member of Nashville Baptist church and of the Masonic fraternity and one of our best and highest esteemed citizens. Near 10 o'clock on the 9th the Masons with relatives and many friends followed his remains from his residence to the cemetery and after very interesting, feeling and appropriate ceremonies by Rev. W. F. Cox, pastor of the Nashville Baptist church and the Masonic brethren, his remains were consigned to his last earthly resting place. We trust it will be a source of much consolation to the bereaved ones to feel an abiding confidence in his blissful immortality.
It makes one feel good to see the Nashville cemetery since it has been enclosed anew and cleaned up. Thursday the 20th inst., has been agreed upon to attend to it. The members of the Baptist church have also agreed to fix up the sash to the church the same day and also call a pastor. Every one living near are respectfully invited to meet there that day or send help.
