NOTE: Originally posted as "W. H. Hartz," he received a federally issued tombstone under the name "Hartz" and that verifies his service with the 55th Pennsylvania. It appears that "Hatz" and "Hartz" are the same man, but his name, other than the tombstone, is always spelled "Hatz" in every other source.
