Our Uncles & Cousins

EVA GRAY TENT NO. 2 || GRAND RAPIDS, MICHIGAN

Last update: October 1, 2024


The following biographies honor soldiers and sailors who are NOT our direct ancestors.

During our research we discovered several relatives connected to our grandfathers. Therefore, as stated on the National Department of Union Veterans of the Civil War website, we decided to "keep green the memory".

 

PURPOSE: 

* To recognize our uncles and cousins for their service during the American Civil War, 1861-1865.

* To provide information for others who are searching for their direct American Civil War Ancestors
