I had an ancestor who was a POW during the Civil War but I don’t know where he was held. He was a Virginian but later moved to Kansas. Even though he is buried in Union Cemetery, his grave has a marker saying “Confederate Veteran.”

Those days and many following during Reconstruction were terrible years.
