Person talk:Martin Taylor (12)

Civil War [8 June 2011]

What regiment did Martin Taylor serve in? We're trying to identify all of the Civil War veterans who have pages on WeRelate. (See the American Civil War Veterans Project page for more information.) Thanks! -- Amy (Ajcrow) 21:05, 7 June 2011 (EDT)

Amy,

I am overseas right now.

Back at home I have downloaded an old book which tells the history of many Michigan boys in the Civil War. It has a short chapter on the Taylor family and their three or four sons who served in the Civil War.

When I return home and have time I will consult this source and get you the information. Probably I will send you a link to the book so you can consult it yourself in the future.

Amy,

Here is one of my sources - however some of the dates here are inaccurate:

I got the service dates from another source that I do not have access to right now - as I recall it was a late 1800s Michigan census of Civil Ware veterans but as I said I am not near much of my info right now - basically I am using a different computer with access to email and internet but not my files.
