Doug,

Capt. Edward P. Byrne commanded an artillery battery that was recruited in Mississippi but became part of the Kentucky Orphan Brigade - that's the only KY name that seems to come close. Byrne later commanded the artillery under Gen. Morgan, so this must be the soldier they meant. I'm not aware that he died in prison, though. He apparently survived the war.
