It’s a wonder that our family history didn’t stop here and it’s amazing that Calvin McGuirt survived the Civil War. He was released from prison on June 29, 1865. The water was contaminated, overcrowding, no shelter and the men were forced to hunt rats and eat raw fish. When the water was high it would flood the area and men would be in water and mud. Many had diseases and many died.
