James Watson (soldier)
James Watson (born 1850) was an American soldier who was in Custer's battalion during the time of the battle of Little BigHorn but did not participate in the battle having been unable to keep up because his horse gave out and he thus survived the battle.
==Life==
Watson was born in Hudson, New York, in 1850. His mother was from Ohio, and his father from NY. He worked as a laborer.
Watson enlisted in the 7th U.S. Cavalry in 1875 in Cincinnati, Ohio. He was assigned to Company C, and served under Captain Thomas W. Custer. He participated in the Battle of the Little Bighorn River on June 25–26 June 1876, where, as his company approached the bluffs overlooking the river, Watson’s horse and that of another man, Peter Thompson, gave out. Watson was able to get his horse up again, but the two men were unable to keep up with their company, which was in a battalion under the command of Lt. Col. George Armstrong Custer. Watson and Thompson continued on to the river, but were unable to rejoin Custer. They returned to the bluffs and joined the remaining elements of the regiment under Maj. Marcus Reno.
