All these men were being held at Fort Warren as prisoners of war. I happen to ran across a book that list all the officers of the Confederate Navy. Most all the men listed here is in that book I will list as much information as i can on each man.
For those of you who didn't find a ancestor or name of interest you may request a look up. My address can be found in my profile.
