FootNote
The new kid on the block, FootNote is known for digitizing historical
documents... many of which are genealogical gems. With naturalizations,
city directories, war records, newspapers, town records, etc... this new
kid is quickly being recognized as an alternative to Ancestry.
While we know our northern friends may not feel it, in the South, Spring is
here. So we thought we'd share a few of our gardening sites appropriate
for this time of the year. Along with gardening, there's grilling, and getting
ready to diet so that you can fit back into that bathing suit this summer!
Records of Death and Internment at Camp
Nelson, Kentucky, 1864-1865
The Records of Death and Internment
provide the decedent's name, rank, unit,
cause and date of death, and burial
location. The Records of Death from the
Colored Refugee Home and the Freedman's
Hospital are for "contraband", slaves
who escaped or were brought within Union
lines. The latter records provide the
decedent's name, height, and date of
death.
