Lars, I am planning to go to National Archives tomorrow (May 16). I can have some Civil War pension records pulled and often they have more information in them than what we find on line. Please make me a detailed list of who you want searched and I will try. You can send it to me off-list. Carol, grandaughter of Anna from Kjerringnes.
