Marcus DeLafayette Haynes - Private

Marcus D.L. Haynes
(Marcus DeLafayette Haynes)
Born June 22, 1843, in Floyd County Virginia, he was a farmer who enlisted at Floyd County Courthouse September 16, 1861, at the age of 18. Taken Prisoner of War November 25, 1863, on retreat from Missionary Ridge Tennessee (per February 28, 1865 muster), he was sent to Rock Island Illinois, a prison camp located on the Mississippi River. Smallpox, Pneumonia, and Diarrhia claimed 679 prisoners and guards there, from December 1863 to February of 1864. By the end of July 1864, the Confederate Cemetery had a population of over 1,300, fully two-thirds of the prisoner deaths that were to occur during the life of the camp, which had been in existence only eight months. It is estimated that the peak population of the camp, at one time, was about 8,600.
On January 22, 1867, Lafayette married Elizabeth Frances Martin, at the home of Stokley Martin in Henry County Virginia. They had seven children:
1. George W. (Willie)
2. Eliza M. Victoria (Victoria) Died in 1975 at the age of 106.
3. Isaac Newton (Ike)
4. Elvira Teressie (Ressie)
5. Benjamin Stokley (Ben)
6. Robert Lafayette (Rob)
7. An Unnamed Male
Marcus DeLafayette Haynes died July 28, 1881, while cleaning the well of the Blackberry Church in Bassett (Henry County, Virginia). He was layed to rest in the Haynes Cemetery, Philpott Dam Rd., in Henry County.

My great great grandfather was supposedly killed in Kentucky during the Civil War and is buried there. I am looking for the location of his burial and any other information about the battles of the 54th Virginia Company H in Kentucky.
