Lots of Information about People from the United States

I am having so much fun with Fold3.  I don't get a commission so this is right from the heart.  I have be able to find all types of war records.  Not just catalog cards with numbers.  Last night I found a Civil War Enlistment.  The day before I found a brother of a relative.  We knew he had them but this gave us his draft card.  I have also found pension records and naturalization records.
