    2. Sidney Dreese
    3. Hello, I am doing research on Civil War nurses associated with Union County, PA, during the Civil War. Hopefully I will connect with some of their descendants. I am interested in knowing about their service as nurses, did they receive a pension as the soldiers, photographs of them, location of their graves and perhaps a photograph of the gravestone, husbands, and children. ~ A few of the women served in Nashville.
