Position:Home>Genealogy> Has anyone ordered Civil War Records of their ancestor? What info?Question:I have hit a brick wall on a particular ancestor. I know he served in the Civil War. Before I spend the money, do they contain info on his parents? I have everything but the names of his parents. I can't get beyond him. During the time he was growing up, the census records did not list all household members. There were lots of Moore's in Logan County Ohio. Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: I have hit a brick wall on a particular ancestor. I know he served in the Civil War. Before I spend the money, do they contain info on his parents? I have everything but the names of his parents. I can't get beyond him. During the time he was growing up, the census records did not list all household members. There were lots of Moore's in Logan County Ohio. I got the complete records for my great great grandgather's Cival war service. They do not list his parents. Some Library's census records list all members in the family, not just the head of household, I found my mother's grandparents that way, she didn't even know who they were. I entered her mother's name and year of birth and up she poped with a list of her entire family............###### Thanks, you may have to check out several librarys, but some do have census records listing the entire family by each name........### Report It * You must be logged into Answers to add comments.
