Henry,
Take a look at Richmond's Wartime Hospitals by Rebecca Barbour Calcutt
(Gretna, Louisiana: Pelican Publishing Company, 2005). Excellent info on
Chimborazo and other Richmond hospitals during the Civil War, including a
map to the 85 facilities discussed. It's probably available from some
library on ILL.
