He contracted Scurvy while in the prison and suffered with it till his death . Statement From fellow soldier at battle says he saw him fall but they were making a hasty retreat and he couldn't go back for him.. William McCoy was the soldiers name. In his files he states he was hit in the head by a piece from a shell and couldn't get back up.. While in the camp recieved meager rations of Corn meal and sometimes Beef and lived in a very small Log structure..(Scurvy is caused by a lack of Vitamin C, The prison camp rarely had fruits or vegetables for the prisoners to eat.)

Changing name in this family tree for William Holman.. Any record I've ever found for him has listed his name as William W. Holman... Only places for other name was family bible and LDS records.. If I find more proof I will change it back.... This helps me with Family Tree research since most people looking for records will be looking for William rather than Elijah...
