Hi Matt! "The History of the BONE Family in America" Volume I, written by Dr.Robert G.Bone, a distant cousin of mine, lists that info. Robert was a Prof at Illinois Normal and gave a lifetime to the research of the history of our Bone family. Robert is deceased and his wife now may be as well. They had two sons and the family has given permission for the reproduction of his work and the continuation of his research. Mr.Larry Bone published the continuation work, Volume II. I communicate with Larry, periodically and he confirmed Robert's findings with contributions from family who were in the know as well as other sources that were Dr.Bone's, however most all of those folks are no longer living..soooo....I have relied on Dr.Bone's research....to answer your question. He lists in his book that James Allen Bone died in 1864 in IL....this has carried on as the general consensus of the all Bone Family researchers that I have had any contact with..they all list 1864 in IL., as the year and place of his death...?? Yet no one seems to know why he was in IL., or where he died in IL...?? I do know that several Federal Civil war P.O.W. prisons were located at IL. One of them mass buried thousands of Confederate prisoners, and we still do not know all of their names, who they were each of them, who had died there at that horrible place. I had read of the conditions at Andersonville which were horrible, had always heard of it and not really known of the Union's prisons which were as bad or worse!
