HAYS, John Crockett - Died at Andersonville Prison
"His Uncle and commander of Company C, Captain Asa N. Hays designsted him Corporal of the Company. He served his Commanding Officer very well. Crockett's father-in-law Mark Renfroe was the Comapany's 2nd Lieutenant. After Colonel Hawkins surrendered a large portion of the 7th Regiment at Union City, the troops were marched to Andersonville Prison in southern Georgia. They had not been there but a few days when Crockett took pneumonia. They transferred him over to the so-called hospital on April 30, the day after his brother Jackson had died in the hospital. It had become a fearful thing to be put in the hospital. No one ever returned. But Crockett defied the general rule. By 10 May he had recovered sufficiently to return to the compound. But the lack of decemt food and the exposure to all the elements, destroyed the already weakened body. Crockett was admitted back into the hospital on 22 July, 1864 with diarrhea and anasarca (dropsy). he died later in the day. They buried him in the prison graveyard. His grave number is 3807."
