The rosters can be searched by a series of keywords, permitting you to find an individual, soldiers of a certain rank, date of enlistment, place of enlistment. Other information, such as the engagements in which they fought, whether they were wounded or killed, whether they deserted, when they were discharged, found in the full compiled service record, will be available in the next edition of the project.
Here's an example: Type "North". You will see the record for Private Samuel J. North, whose war letters are contained in the Personal Papers section of our Archive.
One tip: Men from Franklin county enlisted in several regiments, but generally comprised only one or two companies. Therefore, your searches will be much more successful if you begin at the regimental, rather than the company, level.
