How to Search for an Soldier
Enter as many details as possible. Leave empty fields for which you have no information.
Note that the Soldier Name, Town, Unit, Company, and Owner’s Name are sensitive to spelling. When uncertain about a particular spelling, enter the portion of the word for which you do have correct spelling.
Enter dates as follows: mm/dd/yyyy. For example, enter September 17, 1862 as 09/17/1862. You can search by day, by month, by year, or any combination of the three.
Note that the Keyword Search will search for a word, not a phrase. The results will appear in order of the most relevant first.
