Men & Women In Indiana State Prison.
This page is not meant to embarrass any one. It was placed here to help you learn more about your ancestors. All these men and women were accused of a crime, some were sent free after paying fees and their finds. I picked the names at random, there was no reason other then I was looking for those with interesting crimes.
I know there are a lot who had ancestors living in Indiana and some wre put in some kind of Institution but you have no idea which one. Below you will find a list of Institution. If you would like to know if one of your ancestor was in one, let me know and I will look the name up. My address can be found in my profile.

Captain William H. Acker
William H. Acker, was born in New York, and appointed from Minnesota he would died young at the age of about 29, even thought his military career was cut short it was a interesting one. He became Captain of the first Minnesota Volunteers, on April 29, 1861, he would resign on August 20, 1861, only to reenlist as Captain in the sixteenth infantry, on May 14, 1861. On April 7, 1862, he was killed at the battle of Shiloh, Tennessee. He was made a Brevet Major, on April 7, 1862, for gallant and meritorious service in the battle of Shiloh, Tennessee.
Below you will find part of battle report, which his name is stated Those whishing to learn more abut William H. Acker can take this link.

Numbers 91. Report of Brigadier General Lovell H. Rousseau, U. S. Army, commanding Fourth Brigade.
HEADQUARTERS FOURTH BRIGADE, Battle-field of Shiloh, Tenn., April 12, 1862.
GENERAL: I have the honor to report to you, as commander of the Second Division of the Army of the Ohio, the part taken by my brigade in the battle at this place on the 7th instant. After a very arduous march on Sunday, the 6th instant, during much of which I was forced to take the fields and woods adjacent to the highway, from the narrowness of the latter and its being filled with wagon trains and artillery and for me at that time impassable, we reached Savannah after dark. Under your orders and superintendence we at once embarked on steamboats for this place. We reached the Landing here at daylight and soon after reported to you as ready for action. Under your order, and accompanied by you, we marched out on the field of the day before, a little after 6 o'clock a. m. Soon after, General Buell came up and directed you to deploy and form line of battle, our left resting on General Crittenden's right and our right extending in the direction of General McClernand's division, and to send out a company of skirmishers into the woods in front. This was done at once, Major King detailing Captain Haughey for that purpose.
Within a half hour after this you looked over the ground and decided to take a position some 200 or 300 yards to the front, on the crest of a piece of rising ground. I moved up the brigade accordingly, taking the new position indicated. In this line a battalion of the Fifteenth U. S. Infantry, Captain Swaine, and a battalion of the Sixteenth U. S. Infantry, Captain Townsend, both under command of Major John H. King, were on the right; a battalion of the Nineteenth U. S. Infantry, Major Carpenter, on left of King; the First Ohio, Colonel B. F. Smith, on Carpenter's left, and the Sixth Indiana, Colonel Crittenden, on the left flank, while the Louisville Legion, Colonel Buckley, was held in reserve 150 paces in rear of the line. Thirty or forty minutes after this line was formed Captain Haughey's skirmishers were driven in, several of his men shot, and my command fiercely assailed by the enemy. The attack lasted perhaps twenty minutes, when the enemy were driven off. In this contest Captain Acker, of the Sixteenth U. S. Infantry, was instantly killed

He is a young man of good address, fair education, unexceptional moral character, and steady temperate, industrious habits. He served with me in the valley of the Shenandoah during the advance and retreat of Gen. Banks command through the campaign of the Army of Virginia under Gen.

Captain Joseph M Spencer, Chief Signal Officer, Military Division of the Tennessee, in a report dated Oct 4, 1865, and covering the operations of his command from April 28, 1865, to Sept 1, 1865, reported, "In mentioning in this connection 2nd Lt Asa Abbott, Signal Corps, USA, I would inform you that I have carefully watched his conduct since August, 1861. During the memorable campaign of Gens. Banks and Pope through northern Va. in 1862, Lieut Abbott, then being an enlisted man, won my admiration for his many acts of true bravery; at times, too, when he had no incentive for action, or expected any reward by promotion. As a commissioned officer, he has won my respect and esteem, by the intelligent and efficient manner in which he has performed every duty assigned him, of unflinching patriotism, zealous and reliable, he has served his country faithfully and well."
Abbott must have found the life of a soldier agreed with him. On March 7, 1867, he was appointed a 2nd lieutenant in the 28th U. S. Infantry. On July 14, 1869, he was assigned to the 3rd U. S. Artillery. He graduated from Artillery School in 1872. He was promoted to 1st lieutenant on June 30, 1876. He retired from military service on April 23, 1879. He was brevetted 1st lieutenant from March 7, 1867, for meritorious service in the Signal Corps during the Civil War.
Though retired from active military service, he continued in the service of the government. In 1894, Asa was detailed as professor at the Bishop Seabury Mission in Faribault, MN. He served as the Professor of Military Science. During his tenure there, the school changed its name to the Shattuck Military School.
In August 1901, he was transferred to the University of Washington at the own request. The transfer was noted in a St Paul paper which reported, "Mr. Abbott ranks as a first lieutenant in the regular army, but is also a veteran of the First Minnesota. He enlisted in Company E of that regiment on April 29, 1861, as a private and was subsequently transferred to the regular army, finally procuring a commission."
"Lieut. Abbott is considered one of the best instructors in the country. It is even said that his equal cannot be found outside of the West Point Academy."
Abbott retired from the military on April 23, 1904, and returned to Faribault. He died on Dec. 6, 1923, at the age of 82.

U. S. No. 3. Report of Surg. E. H. AbadieArmy, of events at San Antonio, Tex.
MEDICAL DIRECTOR'S OFFICE, San Antonio, Tex., February 17, 1861.
SIR: I have the honor to report the political changes which will or have already closed our military functions in this department.
In the night, or a little before day, of the 16th, some 1,200 or 1,500 Texan troops, commanded by Major General McCulloch, acting under the orders of commissioners appointed by the Convention which had passed the ordinance for the secession of Texas, quietly took possession of the arsenal and arms, quartermaster and commissary property at this depot, and demanded its unconditional surrender by General Twiggs. After a stormy conference between the department commander and the commissioners, who had been here with their demands since the 8th instant, the general has acceded to their demands, and the two companies of United States troops marched out of the town in the afternoon and went into camp until arrangements could be made to transport them to the coast.
No orders have as yet issued from the headquarters,nor is it known what disposition will be made of the remaining troops. The medical and hospital property is yet under my charge, nor has the hospital been disturbed. So soon as orders issue they will be duly communicated.
I am, sir, very respectfully, your most obedient servant,
