Ruth Ann, After you write the letter as Shirley suggested, please look at this if you have not already done so. http://www.ohiocivilwar.com/cw104.html Be sure to take a peak at what each link has to offer you in the way of information. Many gen research centers have the large set volumes of Ohio Civil War Soldiers & Sailors plus the index. Gives a bit of info on soldiers. I believe that the Hicks Library at the LCHS in Elyria has the index. You can check with Karis at Hicks Library <hickslib@alltel.net> -- Nancy M.
