William Rodgers - 1st Lieutenant
My Great Grandfather, Lt William Rodgers called the area between Moscow and La Grange, TN home. After being mustered into service, he road on railway from Grand Junction, TN north to the western border of MO for a breif engagement with the brunt of the Federal Forces in that area. They then took the railway east to Stones River to engage in that battle where he was promoted to Lt of the 13th TN Inf Co E CSA. Upon arrival in Knoxville, the unit combined with the 154th TN to create a formidable force to reckon with. Thus was proven in short time at the Battle of Chickamauga where they captured the colors and plenty of men of the 77th PA Inf. After reading the diary, one could only guess that the company was in retreat or persuit to arrive at a certain place in Mississi. He was captured in Lockharat MS on 10/05/1863 and shippid up north to Johnsons Island POW Depot in Lake Erie and was released on 06/12/1865. He never complained about being there as everyone seemed to be treated well. The prison camp has been restored nicely and is a great place to visit and learn. You may find all of his letters to and from home logged into the TN State Archives.
