A vet could be sent to any of the National Homes for Disabled Volunteer Soldiers. Usually they were sent where there was space and sometimes residents even asked to be transferred from one home to another. The records for the branch in Tennessee are held by the NARA Southeast region (http://www.archives.gov/southeast/public/). Unfortunately only a sampling of the case files still exist. There are microfilmed registers of residents and
What Jean was referring to was a special census of Union Veterans and Widows
taken in 1890, at the same time as the regular census. It is all that
survived the fire that destroyed the 1890 Census, and it is not nearly
complete, even for the veterans and widows. Anyplace that has it, including
Ancestry.com, has it with their regular census data.
From Ancestry's web site, data only survived from eleven states, with some
of them being only one or two counties or townships. So don't get your
hopes up. In
Have you checked the 1890 Census of Maryland Civil War Vets and their wives?
This part of the census did survive, as I found my Civil War ancestor in
it.
I don't know about them sending vets to another state but have never heard
of it.

Patricia Buck has asked that I post the notice below. I will be at this
event for the first time this year, along with Joyce Bennett (from the St.
Mary's County Historical Society) and Scott Lawrence (St. Nicholas
Restoration Project) working together. My role will be to work with
attendees on tracing their Civil War soldier.
My second G. Grandfather WALTER H. BROOKES was born 7 May 1798 in Prince
Georges Co. MD and I have been searching for information about his ancestors
for years so I would be greatly interested in the information you
mentioned.His obit states that he was from a prominent Maryland family.
Regards
Jim Brookes

I have an ancestor who served from NY but shortly thereafter moved to
Baltimore. I have found no record of his death. However, there is a man by the
same time, same age, who served from NY, in the National Soldiers Home in
Tennessee in 1920. Was it normal to send Vets from Maryland to a Tennessee
facility?
I have several direct ancestors that come from Charles, Prince Georges,
Calvert, and Washington Counties in Maryland. Such as: Zachary Wade, Hattons,
Stones, Gardiners, Newcomer, Spielman, Hogmire, Rentch, Keedy. I would be very
interested in being able to read anything about these people and their families.

My Great UNcle died in Bowling Green Ky. He was a private for the OHio
111th and was only there from August to December 26 1862 when he died of Measles
and exposure. He is buried at Nashville Tenn National Cemetery. I cannot
understand why they buried him down there when he was from Whitehouse Ohio
in Lucas County.
Unless he was sent to a hospital down there but his papers say he died in
BG Ky.

The 1890 Maryland Census of Civil War Vets and/or their widows is available
on microfilm at the Maryland State Archives on Rowe Boulevard in Annapolis,
MD.

I believe it may be called the Union List, since it is mainly Union Veterans
included in the states that were saved.

ProQuest is considering digitizing this collection of early English
newspapers (17th, 18th, 19th century, mostly) for access online. I have
no ancestors from England that I know about at this point, so I am not
able to speak intelligently to them about this collection. If there's
anyone out there who would be interested in giving them some feedback,
please email me and let me know and I will give you the email address of
the person to contact there. I'm l
Brenda,
I am a descendent of the Rench/Rentch family from Washington Co., Md.
Would like to correspond with your as to your ancestors of this family. I
also have ties with the Spielman and Hogmire families.
