t a great web page. My great, great grandfather fought in the IA 19Th Infantry Co. D at Springfield, MO and Vicksburg, MS and I wish there was a web page for them as nice as this one.
It was a pleasure for me to hold the original Civil War Battle Flags of this Iowa regiment as they were removed from the State Capitol Bldg. as I served as the Co-Chairman to Save The Civil War Battle Flags of The Great State of Iowa.
Families should check with the Iowa Dept. of Veterans Affairs for all their ancestors records of the 76,534 Iowans that served for Iowa in all its regiments and units. Iowa has one of the best kept files on its troops of the Civil War and their burial records if buried in Iowa.
