Has anyone working on genealogy heard anything or have information on a group of soldiers from Iowa in the Civil War called the "grey beards" regiment? They are supposed to be men over 40 who enlisted to fight in the war. Thanks, Kaye S. Orange Park, FL jkstraus@bellsouth.net

Kaye, Go to a good genealogy search engine, (I use Google). Type in "Greybeards" + civil war. Plenty of sleepness nights or rainy day material. A couple Iowa related. Dick May you live to be a hundred, with an extra year to repent!
