114.0. "ANDERSONVILLE" by DNEAST::NICHOLS_DENN () Mon Jan 24 1994 15:54

Does anyone know of any publications that might give the names of
prisoners at Andersonville. My great-great survived so he would not
be part of the burial records. I know through family information that he
was in a prison camp and my grandmother says andersonville but I would
like to document if possible. His military records did not say.
I believe he was captured at Port Hudson or at least that is one place where
he was wounded. He was Robert Knight of the 2nd Me. Cav. I know that record-
keeping might have been spotty but I would like to know of anything that
is available. thank you. Dennis N.

    to be deicated).  You might give them a call.
