Hi Doug, I'm redirecting your mewssage to the mail list; it bounced to me as list administrator. Are you perhaps using an email address different from the one you used to subscribe? Celia Would also like information on how to obtain photos. Doug Powers -

Sorry, my message trailed off to some unknown place. I am seeking pictures or documents on the 12th, Ill' Cav. Co. F and G. Looking for info on my ggrandfather Andrew Jackson Jones. --->

I too, would love to learn information concerning the taking of POW's by CS forces..how they were processed and if their names were recorded on records that may be available. My ancestor of the 36th IL Inf, died 1 month after he was listed MIA at Spring Hill 1864. I highly suspect he was a POW due to the fact that he died Jan 6, 1865 in Corinth, MS. a date when CS forces had control of the city. Any help on understanding the recording of Wounded prisoners would be most helpful also.

don- thanks for the links, those will be a great help to me..... also i'd like to put in my request to anyone who may have photo's, documents, letters involving the 8th illinois cavalry, particularly company m.....if anyone can help i'd love to get copies...... thanks dave esmond At 05:06 PM 5/28/2001 -0500, you wrote: >Hi All. > >Sorry I was gone for awhile and didnt see the emails.

Hi Warren, I'm redirecting your mail to the list; it bounced to me. Are you using an email address other than the one you subscribed with? Celia I have been reading about the 11th Il. Cav. in particularly Robert Green Ingersol's engagement of Captain Frank B. Gurley's 4th Alabama just outside of Lexington, TN. Ingersol was captured by Nathan Bedford Forrest along with many of his 11th Cav. I beleiev that my Gr-Gr-Grandfather may have been captured with Ingersol. Family history tells me that he was captured twice during the Civil War. Once pledging not to fight again. My Gr-Gr-Gradfather was in both the 11th and 14th Illinois Cav. Does anyone know of a list of POW's that were taken by Forrest in Lexington, TN and then paroled through St. Louis, MO with Ingersol?

Would the list manager please e-mail me. wwronka@tca.net I have unsubscribed several times and am told always that I am now unsubscribed and am not on the list.

There has been alot of people looking for civil war photos of family members and of the regiments that they where in. I know alot of people on the list are doing Genealogy and there not collectors so I thought I might give you another idea to try and find them. I have been a Collector and amature historian of the 48th Illinois for about 3 years and have found many pictures and documents. Some of my best items have come from dealers, so you should start looking through the items that they have on the internet. If anyone would like any Urls address' I would be happy to list a few. Just to give you a idea of what you can find..I bought a picture of my 3rd great grandfather in uniform from a dealer over the internet.
