Does anyone have easy access to the 1890 Veterans Schedules? If not, of course I can order them at the FHC, but I'm not the patient type {gr}. My ancestor died young leaving little trace of herself. I'm trying to track her brother now, and he seems to have volunteered for the Civil War. (Which would probably explain why he was "naturalized" in the 1900 census.) Ancestry has a guy which seems to be him: James CULLIGAN (or COLLIGAN), Rockaway, ED 117 p. 3 in the 1890 schedules. I can't tell if it's my James, and I don't know if the schedules will help, but they will help me order military records - and if my guess is right, his invalid pension file. Thanks all!

What a great group! I got one offer, one lookup, and one great link: http://www.njstatelib.org/plweb-cgi/fastweb.exe?TemplateName=search_NJcc47_start.tmpl&view=CivilWar&submit.x=58&submit.y=13 NJ Civil War Roster at the NJ State Library - a new link to me. Thanks so much! And yes, he was the guy I suspected and I'll be ordering the disability pension file. Janet
