This looks like a very informative, helpful site. It is from a "new friend" of WVGS, Chloe, who found us while working on her genealogy project. A BIG thank you to Chloe for finding this great site. HTTPS://www.teletracnavman com/gps-fleet-tracking-education/tracking-your-ancestry Here are a bunch of facts, figures & statistics that you probably never knew about! http://twistedsifter com/2013/08/maps-that-will-help-you-make-sense-of-the-world/ This was originally sent out on Dec 12, 2013. Listed here are the names of the officers, enlisted men and conscripts of the Armies of the Confederate States of America who died of Smallpox near this spot between Aug 1, 1863 and Mar 31, 1865. These soldiers had each contracted the disease while being held as prisoners of war at the Federal Military Prison located across the Mississippi River in Alton, Illinois. Once infected with this highly contagious disease, prisoners were transported to a temporary hospital located on a small island. The precise location of these soldiers graves was unknown until 1935. A portion of the Cemetery was inadvertently discovered during construction of the original locks and Dam 26. http://www.usgwarchives.net/mo/civilwar/smallpox.htm Example: PVT. BENJAMIN ALLEN -- DIED AUG. 7, 1863 -- 8TH MISSOURI Sally Rolls Pavia [email protected] List Owner: [email protected] "Soldiers do not die until they are forgotten." "Do not regret growing older.
