Civil War Prisons & Prisoners North & South

This page will not only deal with the prison and prisoners but some civilians as will. There were thousands of prisones on both sides so there will be no way to put them all here. I will give as many names as my space will allow. I will name most of the Union and Confederate prisons. I will also give the names the of the States of where the Union and Confederat men were buried. However I will not be able to give their names just the numbers of the dead.
