Civil War Service Records
Description:
The Civil War Compiled Military Service Records are part of a historic effort
to compile and link all available records of soldiers serving in individual
states during the Civil War. This database is a listing of over 5.3 million
men who served in the war. Taken from records housed in the National
Archives, each record provides the soldier's name, company, and unit. Also
provided is the individual's rank when inducted and rank when discharged. For
researchers of ancestors who may have served in the American Civil War this
can be an informative database. Extended Description:
Union records were taken from National Archives Record Group 94. Confederate
records were taken from National Archives Record Group 109 microfilm series
M253.Compiled Military Service Records (CMSR) Each volunteer soldier has one
Compiled Military Service Record (CMSR) for each regiment in which he served.
The CMSR contains basic information about the soldier's military career, and
it is the first source the researcher should consult. The CMSR is an envelope
(a jacket) containing one or more cards. These cards typically indicate that
the soldier was present or absent during a certain period of time. Other
cards may indicate the date of enlistment and discharge, amount of bounty
paid him, and other information such as wounds received during battle or
hospitalization for injury or illness. The soldier's place of birth may be
indicated; if foreign born, only the country of birth is stated. The CMSR may
contain an internal jacket for so-called "personal papers" of various kinds.
These may include a copy of the soldier's enlistment paper, papers relating
to his capture and release as a prisoner of war, or a statement that he had
no personal property with him when he died. Note, however, that the CMSR
rarely indicates battles in which a soldier fought; that information must be
derived from other sources.A CMSR is as complete as the surviving records of
an individual soldier or his unit. The War Department compiled the CMSRs from
the original muster rolls and other records some years after the war to
permit more rapid and efficient checking of military and medical records in
connection with claims for pensions and other veterans' benefits. The
abstracts were so carefully prepared that it is rarely necessary to consult
the original muster rolls and other records from which they were made. When
the War Department created CMSRs at the turn of the century, information from
company muster rolls, regimental returns, descriptive books, hospital rolls,
and other records was copied verbatim onto cards. A separate card was
prepared each time an individual name appeared on a document. These cards
were all numbered on the back, and these numbers were entered onto the
outside jacket containing the cards. The numbers on the jacket correspond
with the numbers on the cards within the jacket. These numbers were used by
the War Department only for control purposes while the CMSRs were being
created; the numbers do not refer to other records regarding a veteran nor
are they useful for reference purposes today. Source Information:
