G2G: Pvt. Jesse Staples (1834 - 1864) 106th N.Y. Co. C. Died as P.O.W. at Danville Prison Camp

Question

I would like to collaborate in connecting his genealogy. A true patriot who died on Christmas Day in the Confederate P.O.W. Camp at Danville, Virginia after being taken prisoner at the Battle of Monocacy. See his FindAGrave which has some good sources. 

Never Forgotten 

Note: We are almost finished with the free space page of adding every veteran of Company C of the glorious 106th New York Regiment
