Their transcribed journals have been part of our family history for generations, and it is time their story is made available to everyone, offering a personal glimpse into the lives of Union Soldiers from the opening of the campaign in the spring of 1864 to the surrender of Lee at Appomattox and the disbanding of the army in 1865.
