My great, great grandfather died a prisoner of war at Camp Douglas, IL. He’s buried in a mass grave with 6,000 others.

One of my ancestors (GGG-grandfather) also died at Camp Douglas.

A documentary on TV years ago described an Illinois prison which was said to be much worse than the Confederate prisons. Some of what they described was like a horror movie.
