War Records of the Civil War War Records of the Civil WarThis is a compilation of many sources and is not yet complete. Also the microfilm images are often unclear, so errors may well be present.
For listings that are unclear here, I suggest a trip to your local National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). Armed with your family connections, decoding the microfilmed cards may be easier.
NARA holdings include Battle Casualties, Battle Lists, Military Operations, Prisoners of War, Recruiting, Schedules of Veterans and Widows, U.S. Army, and War Department of the Confederacy.
