  • Johnson's Island is a 300-acre (120 ha) island in Sandusky Bay, located on the coast of Lake Erie, 3 miles (4.8 km) from the city of Sandusky, Ohio. It was the site of a prisoner-of-war camp for Confederate officers captured during the American Civil War. Initially, Johnson's Island was the only Union prison exclusively for Confederate officers but eventually held privates, political prisoners, persons sentenced to court martial and spies. Civilians who were arrested as guerrillas, or bushwhackers, were also imprisoned on the island. During its three years of operation, more than 15,000 men were incarcerated there. The island is named after L. B. Johnson, the owner of the island beginning about 1852. It was originally named 'Bull's Island' by its first owner, Epaphras W. Bull, around 1809 (later misspelled "Epaproditus" Bull, by local-historians). (en)
  • L'île Johnson est une île du lac Erié située dans la baie de Sandusky, à 4,8 km de la ville de Sandusky dans le comté d'Ottawa (Ohio aux USA). C'était le site d'un camp de prisonniers de guerre pour les officiers confédérés capturés pendant la guerre de Sécession. Au départ, cette île était la seule prison de l'armée de l'Union exclusivement réservée aux officiers de l'armée des États confédérés mais a finalement détenu des soldats, des prisonniers politiques, des personnes condamnées à la cour martiale et des espions. Des civils qui ont été arrêtés en tant que guérilleros ou bushwhackers, ont également été emprisonnés sur l'île. Au cours de ses trois années de fonctionnement, plus de 15.000 hommes y ont été incarcérés. Le site de la prison et du fort de la guerre civile de Johnson Island est inscrit au Registre national des lieux historiques depuis le 27 mars 1975 sous le n° 75001514 et déclaré National Historic Landmark dans l'Ohio depuis le 21 juin 1990.
