It's a site we should all visit. I went there a few years ago, unfortunately there's not much left of the prison grounds. I bought the book about Camp Life, it's full of diaries and sketches by prisoners, nothing from any Queen. I'm wintering in the Desert and the book is up north. I'll be back home in March and I'd be glad to look up any other names. This was the place where many Confederate prisoners, including John Henderson Queen, were sent to take the oath at the end of the war. Must have been a long walk home to Burke Co. N.C.
