Unfiled papers for this soldier show that he was sick at Camp Butler IL, Sept 12, 1862, and treated in a hospital at Cairo IL, Oct 12-23, 1862. A note on the Cairo hospital record states that he was sent downriver to Vicksburg, evidently for exchange.
The soldier's service file includes a card showing him part of a large group of prisoners exchanged at Vicksburg MS, Sept 18, 1862. However, his name was stricken from the roll, evidently because illness required that he be left behind.
In a postwar record at the ADAH, F. P. Bledsoe states that he died at home. If true he must have been exchanged at a later date.
Unable to locate on the 1860 or 1850 census for Alabama.
