I am writing a book about my 50th TN ancestors who were sent to Camp Douglas, IL.
Taken prisoners after surrender of Ft Donelson. I need info as to the process of prisoner exchanges, and how they were transported. Also captured at Franklin and sent to Camp Chase till April 17, 1865. Need info on how they got home = if Union provided transportation, etc.
I have copies of their prisoner lists, but that is all.
Thanks!!!!!!!!
