Having trouble

[johnnydef47]

A while back I posted about having some trouble finding a relative that according to our family tree was a Civil War vet. According to the tree we have a Rev war vet which I was able to find online so I am assuming the information on the tree is pretty accurate. I have tried several website including the National Park website and I cannot find my relative. I don't have his company or anything which is really what I am trying to find. Are there any tricks or sites that are really worth looking at that I might be missing. Last I posted everyone was very helpful but I am still having trouble.

Hang in there, johnny. As you know, it takes a while for all the experts to show up. Bet they can help. Sometimes the magic works, sometimes it doesn't.

Do you have a link to the old thread or the relative's name?

Agree. I'd be willing to help but need some information to start with. And as much information as you have or willing to give out would be good too.

Thanks! The family tree says Alexander Tickerhoof was a vet. I just can't seem to find any military records for him. I wasn't sure if maybe he was in some local militia in which case I wouldn't even know where to start. The other is John J Farren. They are from the Johnstown area of Pa which would be Cambria county area or Juanita County. Its always possible the tree is just wrong but I'm not sure.
