Military Monday: Civil War Manuscripts, Connecticut Historical Society

   Doing some research today, I stumbled across what might be an invaluable resource if you have Connecticut Civil War ancestors. The Civil War Manuscript Project was compiled by the Connecticut Historical Society in the early 1990s. It is a finding aid to the Society's manuscript. In short:  you can search the project to find out if the Society holds a letter written by or to your ancestor and what that letter's about. You can then contact the Society for more information. What a great resource!
