Yes, James hendricks survived and married a Bridget Lynch in 1866 in Louisville and had 4 children.

Do you know if this soldier, after being captured, survived and if so, who he was married to or his children, etc.? The reason I became intrigued (besides trying for years to find my ? Hendricks) is seeing the name of BURKE, because my Hendrick(s) line supposedly had a Burke lineage somewhere in his pedigree.

Have you read "Co Aytch" a true story of the First Tennessee Regiment by Sam Watkins? Ken Burns used Sam Watkin's in his "Civil War" which was shown on TV a few years back. The Cavalry and their battles are mentioned several times. Claire

My ancestror in a Tenn Cav unit was captured near Chattanooga on Sept 10, 1863. During or just after what battle would this have been? He wound up at Rock Island. Thanks.

For the curious: This book is obtainable in reprint and on ABE [http://www.abebooks.com/] for fairly reasonable amounts up to very expensive. There is a possibility depending on the copy you have of it having more value [signed by author, first edition, condition etc]. Based on the number available it must have sold fairly well. The author was a historian and published many other books... I got 555 hits on his name at ABE. Mike
Alice, I don't know what is contained in this book. It has sat here, on the same shelf, in the same bookcase, for 60+ years, that I know of. Where it came from I haven't a clue but my Grandpa was a champion auction goer so I assume it came in a box lot from an auction, probably bought for a nickel. I have a man's diamond ring that I'm sure came in just such a way. As far as I know I am the first person to open this book. Here's the title and author, maybe it'll tell you something. "Blue Jackets of '61" A History of the Navy in the War of Secession by Willis J. Abbot, Dodd, Mead & Co. 1886. One chapter is entitled " The First Ironclad Vessels in History" so there is some mention of them. I'd be happy to send it to you if you are still interested.
