Basically what I am doing is trying to is find out who(regiments and such) were in certain areas at certain times. Down to the individual solider would be nice, but not always needed.
Alot of time I come across diaries of soliders in a certain area. They don't tell what regiment they belonged to. Only their name and sometimes not even that. It would be nice to be able to figure out what regiment they were with. Knowing what regiment was in the area at the time would help me do that.
I want to be able to find out for myself than having to ask someone. You know.... teach a man to fish sort of deal.
Thanks again for the replies. All help is appreciated.
