| Abstract | This article describes how to research your Civil War ancestors using the Internet and other resources. It focuses on determining whether your German ancestor served in the war, and if so, where to find details of that service. To illustrate the process, I have included some results of my searches for a German Yankee [Antonius Rokus] and a German Rebel [Edward L. Heinichen]. Finally, the bibliography will help you explore relevant print resources. |
