The approaching Sesquicentennial of the American Civil War (2011-2015) offers the current generation of Americans a most important opportunity to know, discuss, and commemorate this country's greatest national crisis, while at the same time exploring its enduring relevance in the 21st century. (National Park Service - http://cwar.nps.gov/civilwar/civilwar.htm.

One of the many projects I have in mind for the Sesquicenntennial of the American Civil War is to put together a booklet on the men who joined the military representing the Town of Enfield during the civil War (1861-1865). I would like to tell the stories of their lives during and after the war.  Where did they live, who were their families, why did they join the war, what did they experience.  A lot of these questions we may never know about or perhaps your family has stories that have been passed down that you would like to share, or is there a diary in your attic, family pictures?  If you would like to help with this project or share your family history give me a call or send me an email (272-6412 / sdt1@cornell.edu)
