What is New in ArkivDigital’s Military Archives?
ArkivDigital’s online archive includes all the general muster rolls for both the allotment and enlisted regiments as well as many other types of military rolls. This presentation will focus on giving an overview of the types of military records one can find in ArkivDigital such as the general muster rolls, pension records, and the recent additions of service records for men enlisted between 1902 and 1941. Examples of how to search for both a general muster roll and during the allotment period and a service record for someone enrolled in the early 20th century will be demonstrated.
