Charles Yeatts

Charles Yeatts, born about 1829, was a farmer residing in Cumberland Township, Adams County, Pennsylvania. The 1860 census listed him as thirty-one years old, born in Pennsylvania, and working as a farmer. His household included Catharine Yeatts, Sarah A. Yeatts, and Elizabeth B. Yeatts. A July 1864 Adams County draft notice listed Charles Yeatts of Cumberland Township among additional drafted men. The available evidence supports this as a probable identification, but later census research had not yet been completed in the enrichment record.
