How long have you been doing research, and where did you start looking? Andrea >> Andrea, I'm descended from Jeremiah(1) Vail. I've been doing Vail research basically since the first time I saw Ken Burns' Civil War series on PBS (about 1993), although I've had copies of the Thomas and Jeremiah genealogies since the mid-1970s. Apart from the genealogies, I started looking in the genealogy section of the Dallas Public Library, arguably one of the 10 best genealogy libraries in the country. I've learned volumes on the Net, but the library has given me answers about which there can simply be no argument, like my 5-greats g'fathers experience in the Revolutionary War. Most people here have read that dreadful ordeal more than once, so I'll spare them another repetition :-) Thanks and regards Steve Vail

He was captured at Shiloh (I believe) and sent to Camp Ford, which was a Confederate POW camp where he died of disease and was buried. After the war, the Federal Government enacted a program to recover all Federal casualties and re-inter them in proper burial places. For this, a system of National Cemeteries was established. My g,g g'father was killed in the Battle of Pickets Mill in GA and buried in a mass grave at the battle site. About 2 years after the war, the mass grave was opened and the remains of the 770 Union troops were buried in the Marietta National Cemetery. And since it was 2 years after the battle, they were all buried in "Unknown Soldier" graves. Steve
