We would assume the name was intended to honor Govenor Watts, but I've never seen the company used that name. Do you have that on a wartime document or statement by a veteran?

Thomas Cassender English remained out of Confederate service during the war. Afterwards he was one of the citizens presumed to have aided the Confederacy who owned property valued high enough to be conviscated by the Federal government. He received a presidential pardon instead.

In late 1864 English raised a company of 2nd Class militia from Monroe and Baldwin Counties. Capt English and his men guarded a bridge over the river that formed the boundary between the two counties. In the final campaign for Mobile Capt English and his men served alongside the 15th Confederate Cavalry.
