Beside Jane Johnson Mercer

Suggested edit: Clemmons Mercer. Mercer served as a lieutenant in an Emanuel County Militia Unit. Captain Moring’s Company fought valiantly against those battle-hardened veterans of General William T. Sherman during The Atlanta Campaign. Mercer survived the war, but died before he reached the age of fifty. Having contracted malaria during the Third and Final Seminole Indian War (down in Florida), he never quite recovered from those poisonous mosquito bites of 1856.
