Can anyone tell me if someone listed Vincennes as their residence when they mustered in
to the Civil War in 1861, did this mean your post Office, Township or what? I am trying to
find this same person in the 1860 census and in my first scan thorough I am finding that
for example there is a Johnson Twp listed in the Post Office of Vincennes. Should I be
looking for the Township of Vincennes in 1860 or would it only be listed as the Post
office? Heck I am confusing myself with this question........ I hope someone understands
what I am asking and can help!
There are 418 images to go through and I'd appreciate any help!
thanks!
