Hi Folks, I have sit on the side lines the last feww days watching what was going on with the prisoner of war camps during the Civil War. For the most part things were interesting, and I am sure alot could be said for either side. However i do feel that a lot is not being said, or there are those who will defend Andersonville and there are those who will defend Fort Delaware. In a few days I am going to put some writings on the list that cmae right from the horses mouth a man that served in Andersonville and in a camp in Florance South Carolina. He was a soldier in the 52nd Regiment Pa Vol from the Scranton Area. I could say alot, but i won't at this time My own Grandfather died in a Rebel prisoner of war camp in Nov of 1864. He layed in a grave for 135 years as an unknown soldier, it has tkaen me ten years to prove he was not unknown, and from now on he will be listed as having died in that camp. And i might add if it had not been for all the help I had gotten from the list, he still may be listed unknown. Folks no matter what we think about a Union prisoner of War camp, or a Southern prisoner of war camp, when you cut up the cake somebody is going to be left out. And this is also fact, of all the camps both Union and Confederate there was only one person that paid the price for his failures. To Both Union and Cofederate Troops who died in prisoner of war camps May they Rest in Peace, and if unknown may we all work to find them Ted
