Looking for Civil War Documents

From the May 11, 2011, Delmarva.com "Civil War legacy preserved."

The 150th Anniversary Virginia Sesquicentennial Civil War Commission and Library asked the Eastern Shore Historical Society to join in a statewide search of original documents in private hands.

Two locations, Accomack and Northampton, have been set up to preserve your private collection and make it available to the world without leaving your premises.

It is called The Civil War Legacy Project and goal is to locate, identify, scan and digitalize artifacts and original source materials.
Scanned documents will be kept at the archives of the Library of Virginia and available on its on-lone data base.
