FOR ALL OF ILLINOIS!!
We are trying to extend, and to some degree
personalize, the information on the Civil War Rosters. Since
many of us had ancestors in the Civil War the Rosters mean more to us than
just a list of names, ranks and mustered in/out dates and the location
they were living. Many of these men kept diaries, wrote letters home,
told stories after the war was over. Illinois was a large contributor
to the numbers of men that joined the Union Army for the purpose of Freedom
for the Slaves in the South. In some cases the whole adult
male population of a given town joined the forces. Some came back
whole, some with missing limbs, maimed, or diseased. Some didn't
come back at all, to either die on a battle field, or later in the prison
camps. They were our Ancestors, and their contribution to the purpose
of Freedom deserves mentioning, more than just in a list. So, if
you have any stories, handed down, letters, diaries written by any of your
ancestors. Please send them to me via e-mail, if possible, or snail
mail.
