A railroad watchman falls under Transit and Railroad Police. I hope that can help somehow.
It helped because I noticed on his census records that he was a police officer in Mobile, Alabama. This was in the 1860s and 1870s prior to him moving the family to Pensacola, Florida. How can I find information about his career as a police officer in the 1860s and 1870s in Mobile, Alabama?

Contact the public relations department within the Mobile Alabama Police Department. There is also a Police Museum in Mobile that protrays the life of the Policeman at that time.
