[Stonewall Jackson]

BUT, other of my ancestors were born in Texas during the Republic or Texas. That ancestor also fought in the CW and was captured and sent to prison in NY. After the War he walked from NY back to Texas.

Do you know the name of the POW camp he was in? One of my ancestors was in the 16th Georgia Infantry, was captured at Cold Harbor, ended up in the Elmira POW camp in NY, and died of diphtheria a few months later.

I don’t know but I can find out. Doubt there were many such camps in NY.
