really appreciates his boss, Lee Pake, visiting his G-Great Uncle William's grave in Chicago today. Uncle William Duncan Register from Geneva was my Grandpa Will Young Register's oldest uncle and he died on 7-13-1862 at age 19 while he being held as a P.O.W. in Chicago. He is buried along with over 6000 other Confederate P.O.W.s in a mass grave in Oak Woods Cemetery which remained unmarked for 35 years after the Civil War.
