Ways to start
A few requests this Agent can handle.
My great-grandfather served in the U.S. Army around 1944, possibly in France. His name was Thomas J. Miller, and the family lived in Ohio. Where should I start?
I found a 1918 Navy muster-roll entry for Arthur Bell from Maine. It lists a ship and date I don’t understand. Can you explain what to look for?
My ancestor served with a Pennsylvania regiment in the Civil War, but I only know his surname, Carter, and county. Which records might identify his unit?
