46.1 | Details ? | STUDIO::REILLEY | We'll rally 'round the flag, Boys | Sat Oct 12 1991 00:49 | 15 |
|
Can you give us more details? FGS address (or ??) ?
Will the work be done at the various regional branches of the NA ?
Or at home on home computers?
Is this the same database the National Park Service was supposed
to road test at Shiloh and Antietam ?
Thanks,
Tom

| Per the add, yes the work will be done at the regional branches.
Unclear as to whether it is remotely connected to the NPS project,
although it does seem the same.
I will enter the complete address, tomorrow if by brain doesn't fail me
tonight.

"...Road test..." a data base. Hmmmmm... That's an interesting
use of the metaphor, Tom.

US Civil War Revisited
The US National Park service is developing a computerized
directory that lists the names of 3.5 million soldiers who fought
in the US Civil War. Visitors to one of the 28 Civil War sites
operated by the NPS will soon be able to ascertain if their
ancestors were Yankees or Rebels. The system is expected to
provide the names, home states, and ranks of the soldiers along
with data on the 7,000 war regiments and many of the 10,500
battles. The data will be input by members of the Federation of
Genealogical Societies and the Genealogical Societies of Utah.
