FOR FURTHER RESEARCH
Civil War Soldiers
The original service records of Union and Confederate Civil War Soldiers and
the pension records of Union veterans are maintained at the National
Archives Building in Washington, DC, where they are available for research
to anyone at least age 16.
The records exist in their originally created form or on microfilm. You can
request searches of those records by using the NATF forms 85 and 86 (see
right).The military service records and pension files are separate series of
records and must be requested on separate forms (Form 86 for military
service records and Form 85 for pension files). For example, if you need
both the service record and the pension file for one particular veteran who
fought for the Union, you need to complete two NATF Forms, 86 and 85.
The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA),
www.nara.gov, does
not have custody of Confederate soldier pension files. For additional
information regarding Confederate pension files, please contact the State
Archives for the state from which the veteran served. For a successful
search of the records, certain specific information is required, including:
Full name, state in which he served, and branch of military. You must also
indicate the side on which he fought, Union or Confederate. If a file is
found for the veteran in question, NARA will supply copies of documents that
provide pertinent information about the veteran and his family. Instructions
on the NATF Forms 85 and 86 explain the payment procedure for copies.
Also, Bertram Hawthorne Groene's "Tracing Your Civil War Ancestor"
(Winston-Salem, N.C.: John F. Blair, 1973) is an easy-to-read guide to
sources of information on Civil War soldiers.
Civil War Regiments
There are four publications which offer more information on Civil War
regiments. Bertram Groene's "Tracing Your Civil War Ancestor" discusses
several different sources on Civil War regiments. Charles E. Dornbusch's
four volumes "Military Bibliography of the Civil War" contains information
on thousands of Civil War publications. To discover more information on
Union regimental histories one should first look at Frederick Dyer's "A
Compendium of the War of the Rebellion" which is published by Morningside
Press. For Confederate regimental histories, Joseph H. Crute, Jr. and
Stewart Sifakis separately compiled Confederate unit histories: Crute's
"Units of the Confederate Army" which is published by Olde Soldier Books,
Inc., 18779 B North Frederick Rd., Gaithersburg, Maryland, 20879; and
Sifakis'"A Compendium of the Confederate Armies" (11 vol.) which is
published by Facts on File, 460 Park Avenue South, New York, New York,
10016.
As for archives, the National Archives in Washington, D.C. has a wealth of
information on Civil War regiments in the Records of the Adjutant General's
Office, 1780s-1917, Record Group 94. This record groups consists of 82
linear feet of bound records and 56 linear feet of unbound records. The
Army's Military History Institute in Carlisle, Pennsylvania also contains
several thousand reference bibliographies on regiments.
And finally, one may uncover information by visiting or writing to any one
of the National Park Service's battlefield sites. The rangers offer
information through talks, walks, films, dioramas, maps, and in many cases
they have access to extensive research libraries at the parks.
