I really don’t have much more on the jail. I suggest Googling or Binging Charleston City Jail and your ggf’s name, and see what comes up.

Really interesting info. I came across your site while researching my great grandfather who, according to the 1910 census was the warden of the Old Jail in Charleston. His father served in the Civil War as a private. Would you know if there is any other info on the jail? Seems my grandmother was raised in it as her father was warden

Thanks,
Maureen

I’m Harry, the owner of this site. Thanks for the compliment. I’ve received several inquiries about James Island in the war, and while I’m no expert, I think I’ll list a few books that folks can check out to learn more. Maybe I’ll do that tonight or tomorrow.

Come back often!

I came upon your site looking for one of my gr gr grandfathers. Old records indicate that he was in the hospital on James Island during the Civil War. He was a Confederate soldier.

Your site is the most informative one I’ve found on the subject. So thank you!

Thanks for stopping by. James Island is a wonderful place, especially for anyone with an interest in the Civil War. I usually get down there at least once a year.

Come back often!

I was searching for information on a battle at James Island and found your site. My hometown (Seymour, CT) has a faily large C.W. monument listing the larger four battle sites it lost men. Atlanta, Antietum, Gettysburg and James Island. By the way, the Hunley sank the USS Housatonic. The Housatonic is named after a river which borders my town.
