Have Civil War Ancestors? 


Get Ancestors in a Nation Divided: An In-Depth Guide to Researching Your Civil War Ancestors

Why Research Your Civil War ancestor?
You may have a story or two handed down through your family about your Civil War ancestor. So what other info do you need?
Was he a northerner called to service by the president? So with honor and the instilled need to preserve the Union he enlisted? Or was he a Confederate soldier fighting for his new country and its rights and freedom? Was he an African American, freedman or slave, fighting for the system with little acknowledgement?
Why research? Because your Civil War ancestor's story is a part of our country’s history. Yet more than that it's a part of your story. To know your Civil War ancestor, his life and military service, is to know a part of you.
 Ancestors In A Nation Divided will guide you through the steps of researching your Civil War ancestor. From the beginning if you only have a name - to an in-depth search of his military and post-war life this book will guide you through the process.
