Tracing my family through the CW

[schuy]

got interested in the Civil War when my mother informed me that the family had letters from a ggg uncle who died of disease during the CW. Then found out there were more relatives who had served... then discovered a small photo album with pictures of some of the men from the 2nd Michigan Cavalry Co. <font color="ff0000">•</font><font color="ff0000">•</font><font color="ff0000">•</font><font color="ff0000">•</font><font color="ff0000">•</font><font color="ff0000">•</font><font color="ff0000">•</font><font color="ff0000">•</font><font color="ff0000">•</font> I'm hooked!!!! Still searching for more information on all the relatives and hoping to put it all together to leave for descendants. been trying to get into a chat, but keep missing people.... or maybe I'm not doing something right...???

Have you tried the National Park soldiers, sailors register? It has a listing of most of the men who served during the war.
