Through April 30, 2008 there is free access to Alexander Street Press's Civil War Reseach Online Database Collections. No need to register, the information details & instructions for use are on this page: http://alexanderstreet.com/resources/civilwar.access.htm I hope someone will find this useful - I found great info about 2 of my gr-gr-grandfathers, their companies and battles fought in one of the databases. When one of my gr-gr-GFs died in 1905, 4 of his old comrade in arms acted as pallbearers and I was able to get info about them and their sevice as well. Regards, Karen from Berks
