Nesselrode, Jacob
Captured May 6, 1864 at the Wilderness. Arrived at Pt. Lookout May 15. Transferred to Elmira on August 10. Exchanged October 29. Never returned home. Some say he was killed in action others said he was suffering from dysentery. I tend to believe the latter for his records show he was at sick call several times.
