Sachse and Company of Baltimore did a print of Camp Casey during the Civil War. A small reproduction of it (from an original at the Library of Congress) is in "Prince George's County: A Pictorial History" page 124.

: I entered Camp Casey into the Google search

: Camp Casey in Bladensburg near Cottage City,
: loosely named for one of the leaders. There
: are several threads out there in the search

: cemetery at Camp Casey, but Fort Lincoln
: Cemetery is in Bladensburg.

: I have no knowledge and no record in

: heard of this camp, I checked several Civil
: War sources, looking for Camp Casey, Fort
: Casey, and Battery Casey, and find no record
: of any such in Maryland. I'm sure that I
: would have known about it if it had been in
: Prince George's County, but since I cannot
: find any record of it in Maryland, I can
: only suggest that you try to search with
: more detail in other Civil War sources.

: Sorry I am not able to help you. Good luck
: with your search!
