Here are the hospitals recorded for treating Georgia troops. Unfortunately there appear to be no records for any of these hospitals at the National Archives or anywhere else.

Their is a group that has been working on identifying the unknowns at Oakwood Cemetery for some time. I do not know how to access them.

General Hospital #14
Also called: Second Georgia Hospital. Building about same size and shape as General Hospital #11. Opened before June 1862. Report of 7 June 1862 lists 65 patients, but capacity was over 125. Location: westside of 20th, between Main and Franklin Streets. Present site: 20-4-6 North 20th Street.

General Hospital #16
