Edwards and the Civil War

Edwards fathers, husbands, and sons who fought in the War of the Rebellion

In gathering or verifying information, I have made extensive use of two online resources:
American Civil War Research and Genealogy Database (cwd)
You must pay a subscription to access all their data, but there is some information available for free. Click on the DEMO icon, then scroll down and choose either the Personnel Directory or Officer Directory link.
Civil War Soldiers and Sailors System (cwss)
This is a database that is part of the National Park System website.

I have also found these websites helpful:
Massachusetts Civil War Research Center (mcw), another online database; and,
The American Civil War Homepage, a list of hundreds of of websites pertaining to the Civil War.
