Civil War Union Soldier's Compiled Military Service & Carded Medical Records
Compiled military service records will tell if a soldier was transferred, promoted, deserted, killed, captured etc. They’re almost like attendance cards that were taken every month. It will tell where the soldier was and any remarks about him. If his enlistment papers still exist, they’d be in there too. The carded medical records are often overlooked records, and are similar to the service records for each soldier. They tell if the soldier was sick, injured or hospitalized. It should tell if he died or deserted. They’re a good addition to get the complete picture of your ancestor during his service. Some soldiers have one card in their file, some have ten or more, and some have none at all. Details & Terms You will receive full color images of the records, delivered electronically.
