Hey everyone – I just ran across an email from Footnote.com
that they are allowing free access to all their Civil War records for the month of June! WOW! Now, that is an offer that you certainly don’t want to pass on! All you need is to sign up for a free account in order to download the images. Footnote is a site that collects scanned documents (instead of searching just an index like Ancestry does).
You will be able to find not only pension info, roster info and other records, but you will also get access to maps and photograph collections.
So click on over to Footnote.com and check out what they have. Only through June 2010.
looking for my great grandfather’s civil war info
Hello,I’m looking for my great grandfather’s civil war record also. All I know about him is that he was a slave in Georgia and he decided to join the war. I’m doing a project for my college that includes information about an important person of your family and I have chosen my grandfather.
Thank you,
Chilana
