I have the muster roll cards for my ancestor along with the fact that he was taken prisoner in Fayetteville. There is no information of what happened to him after he was taken prisoner. No death date, where he was buried, prison camp that he might have been taken to, etc. I would like to find out when he died, where he might be buried, or what prison camp he may have been taken to or any other information.
My ancestors name is William Mann, 36th VA Infantry, Confederate, POW 5-15-1863 in Fayetteville, WV.
His family was from Boone County, WV. His mother was Melvina Kaylor Mann Lewis, his step-father was James Lewis. He had many step siblings, one sister Mary Elizabeth Mann Harless (James Harless) and one brother, Charles Mann, who served in the same infantry. His wife was Elizabeth McGuire Mann. He had one son Oliver David Mann b. 1863.
If anyone can help me with this or any of this family, I would appreciate it. You can email me at
