Hart Island, New York was a training camp for Federal Troops
and served as a prison site for Confederate Prisoners. I can't find any Civil War info on it. Today, it is home for New York's City Cemetery and part of the Corrections Dept. It has a long history. Here is a site about a tour of the Island. Follow the links at the bottom of the page see to pictures of how it looks today.
