"William Lott, Johnston, SC wrote: "My brother, John B Lott, Company H, 7th SCV, Kerhaw's Brigade, was missing after the fight at Gettysburg and has never been heard of since. Any information concerning him will be thankfully received."
Place of burial from Glen Swain (e-mail glenn.swain63@gmail; received July, 2013) He researched this military unit; *** Unmarked Grave ***
From Mr. Swain: "The Clue to finding him was buried in his brother George's compiled service record. It was a receipt from a surgeon from Winchester, VA to the Quartermaster Dept with the late George Lott's personal effects; we know George did not die in Winchester, so it must have been his brother. My theory is that John must have had a piece of equipment with his brother's name on it, thus the mis-indentification."
