Biography
Felix Ferriere appears in the official civilian-prisoner return prepared by Saint Louis provost-marshal George E. Leighton on March 3, 1862. The report expressly distinguishes these detainees from prisoners of war and states that they were confined in the Saint Louis Military Prison. The listed charge was general disloyalty. This records the military authorities' allegation, rather than a finding of guilt. The return covers arrests and discharges during 1861–1862.
