There are a couple of other Barretts there as well. This website has a complete listing of the men who died there, including mil. outfit, plot number, etc. I also found U.S. <http://www.cwc.lsu.edu/cwc/projects/dbases/chase1.htm> CWC -- Camp Chase Cemetery, which is part of a website on Franklin County, OH cemeteries. This has individual pictures of each gravestone. (It's a bit tricky to find link to the gravestone pictures, you have to click on one particular picture to get there.) The cemetery looks very well cared for, the gravestones are all vertical and in excellent condition. Would like to go there if I'm ever in Ohio. Conditions at the camp were horrible, I believe PL died of pneumonia, not sure about TH. >In the little bit of research I have done, it looks like my ancestor, William Grant Barrett, had some brothers who >died as prisoners of war at Camp Chase Ohio.
