The Louisiana in the Civil War Message Board

Re: Union Prisoner of War Records

These records only contain the names of Louisiana soldiers who were held prisoner. The list was compiled by the Commissioner of Louisiana Military Records, probably to assist with the pension application process in the state. I would guess that there is a larger list somewhere in the National Archives, from which this list is derived, but would have no idea where specifically that would be. Chances that it would be available online are very slim to none.
