I hike there 2-3 times a week.
Have done extensive research and written many papers on the Kennesaw Campaign (Mud Creek, Gilgal Church, Kolb Farm, Cheatham Hill, Pigeon Hill, etc)
There are many brigade and division markers throughout the park, but very few that name individual soldiers outside of brigade, division and corps commanders.
Cheatham Hill has a few individual markers as most of those that fell were buried there but later moved to Marietta National Cemetery in 1866.
What are your gg Uncles names? I’ll be more than happy to do some research for you.

Thank you. My g grandfather's name was Dock Monroe Flemmons (Flemmons was spelled different ways over the years), he was born in 1845 in Cobb County. His parents are William Anderson Flemmons and Mary "Polly" Flemmons. Possible names of brothers are James, John, Thomas, Washington (?), Charles and CD.
Over the years, Flemmons is spelled, Flemming, Fleming, Flemmings, Flemings, Flemmon, Flemon and Flemons.
Thanks for your help.
ETA in the 1850 census, the family named was spelled Flemming.
