You need to order his military papers, and pensions records. They take a while to get, but they are often loaded with info, (sometimes not!) You get them from the national archives, and you can go to their website for the form. Also, the Adjugant (I know I spelled that wrong) General's report's are very helpful. I ordered mine from a historian named Bob Schmidt. I don't know if he still does it, or if his address has changed, but this is the one that I have: Bob Schmidt, 5984 Hwy Y, French Village, MO 63036. He charged a small fee for the copies. Good luck! Lorie Castro
