From what I have seen, there are state records available if the subject was a member of a Tennessee, North Carolina, or Virginia unit. Also, don't overlook the publication, THE CONFEDERATE VETERAN (hope I got that right!)...it was a magazine pubished for about 60 years. It is indexed and contains information about a lot of individual Confederate soldiers and their units. Ed Hamblin Chesapeake, VA

    3. I have gotten five CSA records from the archives. Only one was ever a prisoner of war. One was killed in action. The states range from VA to MO to AL, so it doesn't seem to be a state thing.

    3. I have an essentially complete set of links to on-line Civil War information on my web site at http://www.researchonline.net/cwsites.htm If you are looking for a particular soldier and do not know what regiment he served in, send me an email and I will do a lookup in my master index for you.
