Claudius (claude) Goff Rader
Claudius (claude) Goff Rader - 1st Sergeant |
|
Claude Goff Rader first served in Co. E, 31st VA Infantry and was released at Bunker Hill, VA (now WV) because he was underage when he enlisted. He later joined Co. C, 20th VA Calvary. Claude was captured at the Battle of Droop Mountain, WV and spent many months as a POW first at Wheeling, WV then at Camp Chase, Ohio and then Fort Delaware, DE. He was paroled from Fort Delaware. While a POW at FT Delaware he went incognito with the name 1st Sergeant Charles G. Rader, 20th VA Cavalry. Not sure why he did this. There are also documents that list him as Captain C.G. Rader, 20th VA Calvary but I cannot verify the promotion from 1st Sergeant. Claude is buried at the Mill Creek Cemetery, Mill Creek, WV 26280.

The Camp Chase records show Joseph McKinney buried in grave #525, however Joseph McKinney returned home and on 24 May 1866 he married Mary E. Greathouse and they had 9 children, quite a feat for a dead man. All other references point to his brother, John R. McKinney, as the one that died at Camp Chase, OH on 27 Nov 1864.
