LA: Thank you for the info on the VA database. That will come in very useful. It brought to mind a database that I thought might also be of interest to the group. The Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War has placed online their graves registration database for Union and Confederate burials. This is a work in progress as more burials are added on line every day. I am currently compiling an index for all of Newton County to be added. I am also adding burials of ancestors of others and would be happy to do that for anyone on the list if they email off list so I can let them know what information I need. The database is located at _www.suvcwdb.org_ (http://www.suvcwdb.org) . Anyone who is interested in having the burial of their CW ancestor added can contact me at _KidClerk@aol.com_ (mailto:KidClerk@aol.com) . Kyle D. Conrad
