Re: Prisoners at Battle of Pilot Knob, 1864

Bruce:

Thank you so much for your reply. This is the first information I have read that essentially agrees with his statement on his pension application. I certainly didn't have any reason to doubt his statement, but it is nice to read basicly the same information from someone else's research. While I have no proof at all where he was captured at Fort Davidson, I am presuming it was on the hill since that seems to be where the information about the battle indicates Union prisoners were taken. Again, thank you so much for your reply and information.
