One of my ancestors, Jeremiah Weidman (of Navarre, Ohio), died in Andersonville Prison (aka Camp Sumter Military Prison) in 1864 at the age of 29. Jeremiah is briefly mentioned in MacKinlay Kantor’s 1955 Pulitzer Prize-winning novel Andersonville: “Where was Weidman? He was here, he was close, and he would not die until October.”
