Ft Morgan, Ft Gaines, Ship Island

My great grandfather served in the 21st Ala Infantry. He was captured at Ft Gaines and was a POW on Ship's Island until paroled in April 1865. I am going to be in Mobile area next week and will spend most of the time at the forts in Mobile Bay and taking a day trip out to Ship's Island as well. Are there any experts on line or does anyone know of an expert in the area who could do guided tours of any of those locations? Thanks
