I have just begun organizing the research for the Civil War section of the Cashion
Project, but thought everyone might be interested in this preliminary information. It is
obvious that we will need all the help we can get to gather the base transcriptions and
primary documentation. Do any of you live near an NARA depository? I will compile as
complete a list as possible to minimize your search time. (i.e. National Archives
Microfilm Box, Roll, and Record numbers)
If you already have any of this information, please submit it to the project. Everything I
receive is being marked with your source citation. I will be assigning each contributor an
identity code.
I find the breakdown of the variant spellings very interesting. As soon as I complete the
other fields in my compilation database, I will let everyone know how they break down with
Union and Confederate participation.
