O knihe

CIVIL WAR SOLDIERS OF BRANFORD AND NORTH BRANFORD ARE BROUGHT TO LIFE THROUGH PERSONAL ACCOUNTS, LETTERS, ILLUSTRATIONS, AND PHOTOGRAPHS. In this book, Branford, Connecticut's Town Historian Jane Bouley has compiled the military service records and biographical histories of nearly 450 soldiers, using pension records, original letters, diaries, regimental histories, cemetery records, family genealogies, newspapers, and other resources. This is the first comprehensive history of Civil War soldiers from Branford, North Branford, and the village of Northford. Inside, you will learn about Branford during the war, enlistments, bounties, prisons, and hospitals, as well as how to find Civil War pension records yourself; read a detailed chronology of the Twenty-seventh, Fifteenth, and Tenth Connecticut Volunteer Regiments, with summaries of most other Connecticut regiments; meet the soldiers themselves through military and biographical data including pensions and other original documents that detail military service, physical description, residence, occupation, family information, and first-person accounts during and after the war; discover more than 400 photographs and illustrations of the soldiers, gravestones, battles, military scenes, maps, and monuments; and explore the extensive Appendix which includes a Civil War timeline, list of soldiers by Regiment, glossary, draft list, bibliography, and a name and place Index.
