Topic: Researching

Beyond the Usual

Civil War Union sources

This session moves beyond the basic information on the service of Union veterans of the Civil War. It includes many seldom-used sources – online, archival and printed -- which help provide context and detail to the Union Civil War experience. The presentation will include sources of information on ancestors, both men and women, soldier and civilian. It draws upon almost 40 years of experience researching Civil War-era soldiers and their families, both as a genealogist and as a Civil War historian.
