Wily Colledge

I am seeking any information about Wily Colledge, listed on the Confederate Roster as Sergeant, Company H, 27th Regiment, Georgia Infantry. Union POW Records indicate he was captured shortly after the Battle of Atlanta and imprisoned for some time at Camp Douglas, Illinois. The Unit Roster of Company H, Zachry's Rangers does not list him as a member. It is possible he may have deceived his captors about his identity. According to my research, the individual who identified himself as Wily Colledge was the only member of the Colledge Clan who fought for the Confederacy. All the other Colledge Family men joined the Union Army from Pennsylvania. Any help/input will be sincerely appreciated. Thank you. -- Pete Collyge
