I have a good bit of information on Aaron and the Rilea family, also on the Chew side, which would be for Hannah (Chew) Rilea.Here is what I have on Aaron regarding his service record.
Aaron served in the civil war, enlisting on 5th of December 1861 at Leon, Decatur County, Iowa.He was wounded on 14th of May and captured the 16th in 1862.On the 16th of Oct. 1864, he was taken to Kahalia prison, from there to Loten or Milan prison, from there to Andersonville prison and from there to Federal Army, which was at Jacksonville, Florida on the 27th of April 1865.He arrived home on the 3rd day of June 1865.
I would like to trade information with you.Please contact me at my [email protected].
