Ward's Battery from Huntsville, Alabama, saw service at Mobile. My Great-grandfather, George Washington Toone, was a 4th gunner.

What was a 4th gunner duties? Where can I find a history of Ward's Battery and roster?

On his tombstone in Mt. Pleasant Cemetery are the following letters, scribed in a circle: T.K.S.H.T.W.S.S. Since they are in a circle the beginning and end is uncertain. Could these have Civil War significance?
