Camp Tattnall, Chatham County, GA, located on the right of White Bluff Road, one mile from Camp Lawton and one mile from Camp Wilson.

Camp Lawton, Chatham County, GA which is located about one and a half miles from the Center of Savannah. The name of this camp changed three times. It was first named in honor of Alexander R. Lawton, Commander of the Military District of Georgia. About 1 February 1862 it was changed to Camp Jackson, most likely in honor of General Henry R. Jackson Commander of the Georgia State Troops, and finaly after the death of General William D. Smith on 3 October 1862 it was changed to Camp William Duncan Smith by the 32nd Georgia Volunteers. Companies that would come to join the 29th who were also in camp during this time were the Georgia Foresters (9 September 1861), the Ocklocknee Light Infantry (27 July 1861) and the Thomasville Guards (27 July 1861).

Camp Wilson, Chatham County, GA, located three and one half miles below Savannah on the White Bluff Road, two miles from Camp Lawton and One mile from Camp Tattnall.
