I don’t know about TN 43rd but Point Lookout was a Federal prison.
Prisoners did not have shelter on banks of Potomac near Chesapeake Bay. Number
of prisoners who died were high and could be as much as Andersonville or more.
But since the South surrendered the history has been written by you know
who.
Allegedly they had no shelter intentionally because the Rebels were
across the River and could see the mistreatment but do nothing about it. The
Potomac at this point is salt water a few miles wide. St Mary's county
Maryland.
