Whew. ;’) I have no Civil War veterans in the ancestry (Rev War, yes); (just one great) great-grandfather was a bit too old for the war, and had an old leg injury. Two or three of his brothers-in-law served though. :’)
Welp...I have some in all the wars that have affected this continent, since before “white men” came.
I have a grandfather (with the “greats”) who was lost at sea in the War of 1812.
The list is quite long, but if I can gather up the documentation, I can join DAR. I have some of it...I just have to get off my laurels and compile it all, then send it in.
There is also an organization for the War of 1812, and one of these days....(man...maybe tomorrow, I’ll quit procrastinating.)
