I am researching my gggrandfather, CAREY E. FULLER, from Greene County, Indiana. He told his son that he was a prisoner at Andersonville and told of a story that prisoners were dying of thirst when a spring began to bubble up where they were being held. This was looked upon as a miracle from God. I'm new to this list. Can anyone verify this information and tell me how to find out what Regiment Carey E. Fuller was in. Is there a list of the prisoners somewhere? Thanks for any help. pam

I have seen this poster for sale a couple times and would really like one. This is apparently an original and the person wants more than I want to pay for one in this condition. Does anyone know of a source to buy one that is new or in good condition? http://www.nidlink.com/~grandmapj/wlander.JPG Thank you, -Steve M. stevem@agate.net www.rumford.agate.net

Dr. Benjamin Franklin Stanley is listed as serving at Camp Sumter, Anderson, Georgia. Does anyone have more information on this? Thanks, Bruce Young

Hello, Found Order of Probate Judge to one Kenneth McKenzie of Little Narrows [Victoria Co, NS] to administer Estate of one George McKenzie who died lately at Andersonville United States of America...dated 11 September 1866. Can someone please tell me how to find more info on George McKenzie? Is he on Atwater's list of deaths at Andersonville? Thanks very much. Roberta Fraser rfraser@highlander.cbnet.ns.ca

George B. McKenzie - Private, Co. I, 23d MA Infantry. Enlisted at age 19, a farmer from Gloucester, MA. Mustered in 21 Nov 1862. Captured 16 May 1864 at Drewry's Bluff, VA. Died of disease 21 Aug 1864 at Andersonville, GA.

According to family tradition, my G-G-grandfather, James Madison Gordon, was a guard at Andersonville as a teenager. Can anyone with an Andersonville CD or any books on the topic confirm this? Sincerely, Helen Leino

My GGGrandfather, Burgess Ward was captured at Mooresville Alabama January 2, 1865. He died in a southern prison. I have so far been unable to find out which prison he was taken to. I would really appreciate it if someone with the Andersonville cd could let me know if his name is listed. Thank you so much. Dottie McKee dottie@flattops.net

Hi Steve, We have a web site regarding Illinois Civil War veterans that is quite good. I have attached it below. There is one James (nmi) Miller listed in Company I of the 52nd IL Infantry. http://www.sos.state.il.us/cgi-bin/civilwar?52+Inf For those simply wishing to search units and companies the address is: http://www.sos.state.il.us/cgi-bin/civilwar Use requests like, "52 Inf," for IL 52nd Infantry Regiment. Art for artillery, and Cav for cavalry. Warm regards, Dick Hudson

Would like any info an James H Miller from Illinois, Possibly the 52 inf. Died June 20, 1864 and in grave no. 2254. Would especially like to locate any rosters that show his name or document his time there. Please reply via E-mail to this address. THX Stephen Miller St Louis Mo

I KNOW FROM FAMILY TRADITION THAT MY GREAT GRANDFATHER SPENT TIME AT ANDERSONVILLE. HE WOULD TALK ABOUT IT ON VERY RARE OCCASIONS. THE FAMILY KNEW IT WAS DIFFICULT FOR HIM TO DESCRIBE. HE WAS WITH A GROUP FROM PENNSYLVANIA, PROBABLY THE BUCKTAILS, ALTHOUGH I HAVE NOT YET VERIFIED THAT. HE MAY, ALSO, HAVE BEEN A CIVILIAN AT THAT TIME, WORKING WITH A GROUP OF RAILROAD BUILDERS WHO WERE TAKEN CAPTIVE. ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED! kennedys@erienet.com

I'm looking for any information that you may have on a William Coughenour of the Co. C 19th PA Cavalry 180th Reg. that died at Andersonville. Date died? date burried? anything at all? Thanks. William
