Audrey I am currently researching the 15th Confederate Cavalry and J. G. Callaway of Stockton, Alabama, appears as a Private in Co. C. I believe that your family stories as to him being at Ship Island may be true. While his particular record does not incicate his capture there are several men of the 15th that were reported as having been captured by US Cavalry forces operting out of Pensacola, Fla. under the command of General T. J. Lucas. These men are reported as being sent to Ship Island, Miss. There was another Callaway from Stockton also in the unit. Private John A. Calloway, Co. C. They joined on the same day. I hope this is of some help. Art Green
