Clicked on his name and got info about him. Clicked on his unit which was near his name. That gave a printout of when it was formed, where it went, etc. I also checked one surname and clicked on IL. It gave a list of every person with that surname who served from IL. That might help you. I am researching the Goatley family. Two of the Goatley boys who lived in Illinois went to Kansas to enlist. Later, their father and all of their siblings moved to Kansas. If I had only looked in Illinois, I would not have found them. Happily I already knew where they had served. However, if you have no clue about some folks, you can just put in the surname and see folks from all over. Hope this helps. Kathleen (STANFIELD) COOK
