Cahaba Prison, AL - list of Union soldiers imprisoned?
I have an ancestor whose records we have found that indicate he was held at Cahaba, the old cotton warehouse that was turned into a prison for captured Union soldiers.James Monroe Isentrager was only 14 when he enlisted in Co. M, 9th IN Cav.He was captured Sep 25, 1864 at the battle for the Sulphur Branch Trestle, in Alabama.When the war ended, he was released.He was one of the many men who died in the Sultana steamboat disaster on the Mississippi River near Memphis, TN, on April 27, 1865.
Does anyone know of a roster for the Cahaba Prison?Does anyone know where those who died in the Sultana disaster were buried?
