While Googling around this weekend I found a site for NY records only $3, I don't know what is included but for that money it is worth while to see if this is my G-G-Grandfather James P. Dickinson from Poughkeepsie who enlisted in NY Infantry 95th. http://iarchives.nysed.gov/CivilWarWeb/print.jsp this is the page I printed so click on home and it should tale you back to the beginning.
