    3. Hi everyone, I've added more individuals and regiments. The reason there's such a difference in number between Union and Confederate Regiments is that Hal Sharpe kindly shared the Confederate Regiments at the Battle with me, but I'm doing searches in my spare time for the Union Regiments! Now that the holidays are winding down, I hope to have a little more time to devote to the searches for both regiments and individuals. I'm excited about an excellent contribution by Alice Gayley: "Letter Describing the Battle of Fair Oaks (Seven Pines) by Captain B. J. Reid of the 63rd Reg PA Volunteers" at: www.thepastwhispers.com/Seven_Pines_Captain_Reids_Letter.html Cap. Reid was very articulate and thorough in his description of the heat of this battle, if you had an ancestor at Seven Pines (Fair Oaks), you might want to read his letter. The main page is at: www.thepastwhispers.com/Seven_Pines_participants I have so much more to add, besides more names and regiments, I've been collecting pictures and information from several old books, etc. But, from now on, I will post most news of the site only to the Seven Pines e-mail list. Everyone's been very gracious, but I don't want to intrude any further on the time of the subscribers of the other lists, who may have no interest in the Seven Pines Battle! So, if you don't belong to the Rootsweb Seven Pines e-mail list, please bookmark the site and check back for additions. Thanks so much to all of you who have contributed names and information.
