Good morning all, Just last night on Philly-roots List the following message was posted: "In getting info on ancestors military. You can get forms from the National Archives to request these records: http://www.nara.gov/nara/mail.html In the subject box put "Form". You can ask them to send you: Form 80 - military service and pension papers prior to WW1, Form 81-Passenger Arrival, Form 82-Census Records copies, Form 83-Eastern Cherokee Application, Form 180-Military after WW1." I know that the National Archives even takes Visa! Nancy at GKapper@aol.com
