Haulin' Brass : A Confederate Chronicle of Capt. Croft's Flying Artillery Battery, Columbus Georgia
(CLOTH) 0-89029-319-8 / William B. Forbes II / Hardcover / Published 1993, Publisher: Morningside House, Inc, 260 Oak St., Dayton, OH 45410 Our Price: $40.00

Ed's Croft's Flying Artillery was a little known Battery - but according to the research I've done at the National Archives they deserved a great deal more recognition. The men in Croft's Battery were comprised of 300 men from Georgia and Alabama (primarily Randolph Co.). Many joined in "groups" and were related to each other.

==============
Mormon Church Files - www.familysearch.org

The IGI, International Genealogical Index, is composed
primarily of civil and church records that were microfilmed
by the Mormon Church (The Church of Jesus Christ of latter-
Day Saints).  These records contain birth, death, and
marriage records.  There will not be records of entire
families.  Volunteers read and transcribe microfilms when
the Church is allowed to film the records of governments and
churches.  As they are checked and made available, they are
added to the IGI. 

The Ancestral File is a collection of genealogies submitted
by people who do genealogy.  Anybody can submit theirs and
everybody is encouraged to do so.  The Pedigree Resource is
similar to the Ancestral File.  This information is generally
submitted through the Internet. 

The IGI, the Ancestral File, and the Pedigree Resource File
(along with the Social Security Death Index and tons of
other data) is made available at the site
www.familysearch.org.  There is no fee nor subscription
required to use the site.  It is an incredible resource!  (I
found over 4400 names in 13 generations by just searching
for my mother's mother!)  Anybody can "upload" their
genealogy and have it made available to everybody - again,
Thank you - Earl Capps
