I just noticed we have 2 categories for Andersonville Prison.

1) Andersonville Prisoners of War

2) Camp Sumter, Andersonville, Georgia

Perhaps we should merge these categories and eliminate the duplication.

Best answer

Camp Sumter, Andersonville, Georgia is for Confederate troops who worked there.

Andersonville Prisoners of War is for prisoners.

The category for confederate troops explains that with a link to Andersonville Prisoners. Perhaps the category for prisoners should include a link to the category for Confederates assigned there.
