A Roster of North Carolina Troops in the War Between the States-- Part 4

The Civil War Roster Project had published 15 volumes by 2006.  Volumes 1 and 2 cover artillery and cavalry units, respectively; volumes 3-15 contain rosters and histories of infantry units.  Volume 16 will present additional Confederate infantry units and volume 17 will contain rosters of  miscellaneous Confederate units such as junior and senior reserves, militia, Home Guard, navy and Marines.

It will also include North Carolina Federal troops (four regiments of blacks and four of whites) and many North Carolinians who served in units from other states.
