My other great-great grandfather, their neighbor, was a POW and ended up in prison at Ft. Pulaski outside Savannah. I have the handwritten paper releasing him from prison. We don't know what he did, but we suspect he refused to sign an Oath of Allegiance after the war. He was required to sign since he was a local official.

@exexec He must have gone through hell in that camp. They weren`t all that well treated on either side.

He was lucky. Ft. Pulaski was where they sent a lot of the leading government officials of the Confederacy. I visited there a few years ago, and they had a casement set up like it was for the prisoners. Interesting.
