Edwards and Edward Steers Jr., published by the University of Illinois Press, Urbana and Chicago in 2009, ISBN 978-0-252-03368-1. It has on page 550 a “List of prisoners held April 27, 1865”, on pages 551-53 a “List of prisoners committed since April 13, 1865” and on pages 1370-71 a “List of prisoners confined in Old Capitol Prison, June 1, 1865”. Does someone in this forum know what exactly is in these lists? Very curious about that.

They're lists of people arrested and confined by orders of the Department of Washington, and lists of those being held in Old Capitol Prison, with their arrest dates and accompanying comments. If there's a specific person(s) you're interested in, I can check for you.
