Place of Death: Camp Chase, either OK or OH. Camp Chase was in Ohio. It was a Union POW camp during the Civil War. Many men died there from disease. Since the man was from Barbour County, it would be natural in that time to report it to the local clerk for recording. Sometimes this is the only clue one can find to other information. If it had not been recorded there, you would not know where to look. Koren Fae Rawlings 304-358-3261 Pendleton Co., WVa Historical Preservation Association P.O.
