Jarvis, Surgion Us. 7th CONN Vol In charge of General Hospital, Wilmingotn, NC *My note---the form for the list of effects simply states "No Effects" There is only one more document in the sent material. It is; Memorandum From Prisoner of War Records. It appears that at some point Lewis was sick in a hospital in Mississippi. On this form, there is an area that says, "Informaiton Obtained From" and under this, is says: The Records of Miss Hosp. Roll, vol. 120, page 2, vol. file, page 64. I really don't understand what this is as the only other thing on this form is a statement that Lewis died at the General Hospital in Wilmington, NC on April 20, 1865 of smallpox. ========================================================================== USGENWEB NOTICE: In keeping with our policy of providing free genealogical information on the Internet, data may be freely used for personal research and by noncommercial entities, as long as this message remains on all copied material.
