If venue lies in any northern state aggrieved by the determinations and actions of Davis, why wouldn't venue lie in Chambersburg Pennsylvania or Hanover or any area in North in which rebel soldiers held the city for ransom, by the directives of Jubal Early ala Jefferson Davis.  I will research why Holt and Dana felt a trial must be held in Virginia, but personal jurisdiction and venue could have easily been gained in northern cities.  Who determined venue?
