While looking to see what war the Battle of Sugar Loaf was in, it was in WWII at Okinawa and called the "Killing Ground," I came across a site from Hartford, Michigan. They have done extensive research on veterans from the town and county who have served in every war since the Revolution (they have two veterans from that war).
In some cases, there are pictures of the soldier, their grave, and all have some or all of their service record.
The Civil War section is divided into four areas alphabetically. And there are a lot of them.
You can find the site at:
hartfordmi.com/.../CivilWar/Civil War Soldiers M-R htm
There was also a Sugar Loaf located several miles north of Fort Fisher where Confederate soldiers were held by General Bragg instead of coming to the aide of the fort. It is still there and has some of the best-preserved Confederate fortifications in the area.
I didn't think that url would work. You can search it at Hartford, Mi Civil War Soldiers
