I pasted it from the web page, but sometimesthat doesn't work. Try: www.nps.gov/cwss/ That should get you to the web page of the national park service. Then search for "Civil War - soldiers and sailors." It surprised me that this would be on the web site of the National Park Service.

Civil War Soldiers and Sailors System - National Park Service database under development http://www.itd.nps.gov/cwss/ I found both of my Civil War soldiers listed here, including one in the 4th NC Senior Reserves at Salisbury, NC. It gives rank, unit, but not age or other identifying information. But it does give you the film number to find out more perhaps. Betty Pace

To all interested "Old Rowan" County, North Carolina: The NC Department of Transportation is *still* planning on destroying many of our historic sites in the Trading Ford/Fort York area of the Yadkin River. The planned widening of Interstate 85 will destroy historic resources important to our Native-American, early settlement, Revolutionary War, and Civil War heritage. Many of you sent an email in response to Dan Patterson's request asking NCDOT for a public meeting. NCDOT promised this meeting in April, and nothing further has been done. There are alternatives which would save all these historic sites. Even though federal laws mandate it, NCDOT has refused to consider any alternatives. Please go to this page: http://home.webkorner.com/whigkid/tradingford/save.html Under "What you can do", please click on the first link to send an email to NCDOT and the NC State Historic Preservation Office asking that they save or minimize the highway construction's impact on our historic sites. Please be sure to add your name and mailing address to the end of the message. This highway project is federally funded, so all of us, all over the country, have a stake in what our government does. Please make your voice heard! Pass this on to your address books and other online lists. Thank you for your continued interest and support. Ann Brownlee whigkid@webkorner.com

Is this the book someone was asking about? Betty Pace As long as we are recommending books, I thought of one that I thoroughly enjoyed (got it thru inter-library loan). Hope Summerell Chamberlain wrote "This Was Home" about her childhood and young adult life in Salisbury, Rowan Co., during the late 1880s up to her marriage, when she moved north with her young husband, as I recall. She was born in 1870 to NC parents. Her father was Dr. Summerell and I think her mother was the daughter of a college professor in Rowan Co., NC. She does cover some of her father's recollections about the Antebellum Period through Reconstruction in NC. I think her parents moved to Salisbury around 1840, so she had quite a time span to write about. I liked reading about where my grandparents and great grandparents lived in Salisbury. I remember her saying that the streets were in very poor condition but they had isntalled giant granite stepping stones in the road that you could use to keep your shoes clean, and yet they were set low enough that carriages could pass over them. Some prominent citizens are mentioned, but that is not the focus of the book. As I recall, it did not have an index. This is not a book that will help you with your genealogy but if you like studying the history of the period from a personal viewpoint, I highly recommend this book. It was published at Chapel Hill in 1938 by the Univ. of NC Press. Betty Pace

I am wondering if anyone is researching the Isaiah Phipps family that is listed on the 1800 census. Specifically, I'm looking for Zarr Phipps who might have been a son of Isaiah Phipps and possibly his namesake, since Zarr might be a nickname for Isaiah. Zarr Phipps was born bet 1800-1820, lived in southwest VA some time before the mid 1830's, and lived in Knox (now Bell) Co KY from 1833 to 1835 or 1836. He either left or died in 1835 or 1836 near the time of the birth of his second son. Zarr Phipps married Didaima "Damy" Baker who was a daughter of Andrew Baker and Jane Gillis originally of Lee Co VA. Damy's grandparents were Rev Andrew Baker and Eliz Avant who lived in the New River Valley of NC and in Lee Co VA. If Zarr Phipps is familiar to anyone I would greatly appreciate knowing. I've looked for him for several years, to no avail. Thanks in advance for any help. Connie

Looking for ancestors of Godfrey Cody b. 1750, also anyone know where the book "History and Antquities of Kilkenny" by Healy, or The Cody Book by Howard Wright. Thank You.
