Colonel George S. Patton, his grandfather, served in the 22nd Virginia Infantry of the Confederate States of America and was killed during the Battle of Opequon.
As an interesting side note:
The Confederate Congress had promoted Colonel Patton to brigadier general; however, at the time, he had already died of battle wounds, so that promotion was never official. Had he survived a few more days he would have been the first "General Patton" instead of his grandson.
