In June 1863 the 7th Battalion, then stationed in East Tennessee, joined General John Pegrem's Brigade on a raid into southeast Kentucky. In a skirmish at Montecello, Kentucky (June 6), Osborne was captured. He was confined at Federal prisoner of war camps at Camp Chase and Johnson's Island, Ohio, but was moved to Point Lookout, Maryland, October 30, 1863.

He remained in confinement at Point Lookout until November 1864, when he was paroled and exchanged at Savannah, Georgia. There are no further military records for him.

Thanks to Ron Partin for taking the time to take the photographs. I know that you had to search for this cemetery. I have been told it is not an easy place to find.
I will share the pictures with other relatives and enter them into my records as well. People yet to be born will thank you for the pictures Ron.
Thank you Ron.
