Kendrick, To some of you that already know me, and know that I am working on a major project on the Civil War Veterans of my family. I am looking for any names or information on the families listed above that served in the Civil War. I thought it was time to find out more information about the people in my family tree which contains in excess of 25,000 members now. So I decided to focus on the men of the Civil War before there is no one left that may have heard stories, have photos etc of the family that served in the war.Over the past 2 months I have visited at least 20 different Battle Fields just in Virginia. Gettysburg will be in September. At present I have 21 members that served in the war in units such as the 21st, 38th, 42nd, and 57th Virginia Infantries. I have been visitng all of the Battle Fields that these units saw action to take photographs, talk to park rangers, and going everywhere possible gathering as much information as I possibly can. I have 18 pages of typed information right now, and I expect the report to grow to at least 70 or more pages when completed. When the report is completed it will be sent to Bassett, Danville Genealogy Department to be kept on file. I will also forward it to any member of the family who wants to add it as a permanent part of the Family Tree. I look forward to hearing from anyone who can assist me in this massive project, and I greatly appreciate any help I can receive in this matter. As always, I will be glad to share any information to anyone in the family search if I can. Respectfully Yours, Michael D. Kendrick 10424 Genito Rd.
