The Civil War Research Guide
Stephen McManus,
Donald Thompson, Thomas Churchill
Offers latest information on sources and techniques, including online resources
Contains contact information for hundreds of sources
Provides examples of specific documents included in genealogical research
It has been more than 40 years since the last comprehensive guide to tracing
and researching Civil War ancestors was published. The Civil War Research
Guide goes beyond, but does not exclude, such major national sources such as
the National Archives in
Washington
, and features information on little-known publications, websites, auctions,
memorabilia dealers, and patriotic organizations. The authors lay out a
systematic procedure for performing research and recording the results in
order to build a proper file on a Civil War soldier, making the experience
both educational and entertaining.
