The Andersonville Irish Project has now recorded details of 350 Irish Americans who perished at Andersonville during 1864 and 1865. To mark that milestone we have produced an infographic (below, click on the image to enlarge) highlighting some of the main details we have gathered to date. Thanks to the Irish Consulate General of Atlanta, Andersonville National Historic Site and Professor Nicholas Allen of the Willson Center for Humanities and Arts for their ongoing support of the project- and of course the readers and patrons of the site, without whom none of this work would be possible. As the project continues to progress there will be further infographics and updates on order to share our findings as we make them. Please feel free to share the infographic widely!
