Looks as if there's another Vandergrift from that area besides the ones mentioned by Dr. Jones. This is another John Vandegrift who served in a company led by Capt. Truss which eventually joined Barbiere's Battalion. This company was recruited in eastern Jefferson County in late 1863 and included several men who had served in regular army units such as Co. "C", 18th Ala. Inf. Regt.
