Just before the Civil War, I understand that all ablebodied men were in the militia. I presume they had uniforms, etc. Are there any lists of these men in the militia. I am talking privates here, not colonels. My ggrandfather had a uniform but I can not tell whether it is a Civil War uniform or a militia uniform. He disappeared during the Civil War. And, of course, he may have "gone to Texas". I would like to prove that he was in the milita. Thanks for any help. Betty.
