Search Tips

Try a variety of search options and guesswork to maximize your search results. The data is voluminous, and every effort for accuracy has been made. However, errors could occur, either from the data input or the original list itself. Therefore, if you are having difficulting locating a soldier, you should try entering just a portion of a last name/surname (ex: "davi" will pull up "Davis", "Davies", "Davidson" etc.), different spellings of last names/surnames, entering only the first name, or widening the search to the entire county and browsing, etc. Keep in mind that in the original records, some individuals share the same service number!
