Ancestry.com - Louisiana Civil War Records Official Records of the union and confederate Navies in the War of the Rebellion.31 vols. Guide to Louisiana confederate military units 18611865. http://msn.ancestry.com/library/view/ancmag/2150.asp
Extractions: Three years ago I received a photocopy of the original roll book of the Eighth Battalion, Louisiana Heavy Artillery. This unit served in four major campaigns of the War Between the States. The roll book contained the names of 125 men of the original 400. I was determined to find out more about these men and the battles they fought for four years. I started my search at the local library, which has a three-volume set titled Records of Louisiana Soldiers and Louisiana Confederate Commands. It contains information on all men who served the Confederacy from Louisiana. These books provided my first real lead. My primary source on the historical aspect of the unit came from Official Records of The Union and Confederate Armies in The War of The Rebellion. This is a 129-volume set published by the government in the latter part of the 19th century. It was compiled from records created by Union and Confederate armies during the war. Each volume contains a wealth of information on both personnel and events of the war. A companion set

Broadfoot's Civil War Unit Records for the union or confederate military unit is a transcription from that unit's microfilmedrecord entitled Compiled Records Showing Service of military units. http://www.soldiersearch.com/unit_record.html
Extractions: Broadfoot's Unit Record Search T he Unit Records we provide were transcribed from the National Archives microfilm records M594 and M861 and are contained in our publication, the Supplement to the Official Records of the Union and Confederate Armies . These records relate to the stations, movements, or activities of each unit, or part of that unit. The detailed and corrected transcripts of the original records and reports tell where each unit was organized and provide accounts of where the soldiers were sent, the battles they participated in, and their trials and tribulations throughout the war.
Extractions: In compiling this guide, project staff reviewed and analyzed collections and individually cataloged items for Civil War content. We were led to materials through the Society's existing card catalog of manuscripts and through information in our new automated collections management database. Analysis of items and collections included the review of materials not previously highlighted for Civil War content but that fell into the appropriate time period or to which the staff's attention was drawn by some other means. Consequently, this guide provides detail about far more materials than could be found by an initial review of Civil War-related subject entries in the card catalog or database. At the same time, we should make clear that our search of the manuscripts collection for Civil War materials has been comprehensive but not exhaustive, given the constraints of time, staffing, and the sheer size of the collection itself. Certainly, other materials than those listed in this guide may be located in our holdings through imaginative research strategies. The great majority of Civil War manuscripts currently in the holdings Virginia Historical Society, however, may be accessed through this guide. Another important point to which the attention of users should be drawn involves the types of materials that make up the Society's manuscripts collection. Although some military service records, muster rolls, orders, and the like may be found in our holdings having made their way by various routes into collections of personal and family papers the Society's collection consists primarily of letters, diaries, scrapbooks, and related materials and is not the place to launch a search for official documentation. Queries about such records should be directed to the Archives Division of the

Extractions: The best way to begin your search is to play 20 questions with your elderly relatives about what they know of the last several generations. Search the house for images, documents, anything that might give you clues to the past. If you are not familiar with how to research Civil War regiments, I suggest that you find a copy of Tracing Your Civil War Ancestor by Bertram Hawthorne Groene, ISBN:0-345-36192-X. This book is readable and includes much useful information. The National Archive's Civil War Records Tutorial includes a thorough explanation of the kinds of information in their collections. These sources will give you an idea of what information is available and what types of clues to look for. At a minimum there are several pieces of information that you need to begin your search: a name, unit number, place of residence, dates, and date/place of death. You need not have all of these. But the more information you have the easier you search will be. Each of these items can help you locate clues to your ancestor's service. Research Plan Gather as much information as you can from documents, photos, relics, and relatives.
Arkansas Confederate Infantry Regiments Records, muster rolls, and duty assignments of the men representing Arkansas for the Confederacy .Category Regional North America History Civil War most commonly considered to be of military age as having served in multiple units,Arkansas provided and 5,000 black Arkansans fought exclusively for the union! http://www.aristotle.net/~tomezell/AR_regts.htm
Extractions: More than 30 infantry regiments, a dozen cavalry regiments, and a host of assorted battalions, companies, and batteries were raised in Arkansas for Confederate service during the War Between the States. Most of these units, regretfully, have never had a spokesman or a historian. Researching the history of Arkansas's Confederate forces is made doubly hard by the fact that shortages of supplies, including paper, after the summer of 1862 kept many regiments and companies from keeping detailed records. And most regrettably, for the Arkansans who served in the Confederate Army of Tennessee and Army of Northern Virginia, the intensity of combat and harsh life in the field left few survivors to tell their tales. The capsule histories herein have been compiled mainly from (1) Stewart Sifakis, Compendium of the Confederate Armies: Florida and Arkansas (New York: Facts on File, 1992); (2) Clement Evans, Confederate Military History , Volume 10 (Louisiana and Arkansas) (Wilmington, NC, Broadfoot Publishing Co., 1987); and (3) Supplement to the Official Records of the Union and Confederate Armies in the War of the Rebellion, Part II, Serial 14;
