Several weeks ago, it was reported that the Compiled Service Records for Confederates were only located at the Hdq of NARA in Washington, DC. Today, I went to the SW Region NARA in Ft Worth, TX and found that, indeed, they do have Microfilm Index of those records, and the Compiled Service Records for the states of Arkansas (M317), Kentucky (M319), Louisiana (M320), and Texas (M323). Each File contains several Reels of Microfilm, i.e., File M323-Reel 332. Some are only Muster Cards, while others also contain pay slips, uniform issue, equipment requisitions, and various other bits of information. As a second issue, one should not overlook the files at the Confederate Research Center, Hill College, Hillsboro, TX. <http://www.hillcollege.edu/museum/crc.html> They have a vast array of Info, mostly Texas CSA.
