In Response To: Re: Irish from San Patricios ()

Mr. Bozic: Thank you very much for your full and interesting response. My Irish ancestor arrived in Baltimore in the late 1680s. So far as I know he was a protestant. My Great Grandfather and two Great Uncles were in company A of the 18th Ga. Infantry, ANV. My GGF died at Seven Pines; both uncles were captured; one at Cedar Creek and the other at home in Georgia recovering from a minie ball wound at Spottsylvania. He was held at Camp Douglas for almost a year, being paroled in June, 1865. From what Douglas was like, I don't want to hear about Andersonville. Stan
