I cleaned scanned and caption them as he did on the slides, he was part of the medical air evacuation group and flew all over Korea flying our brave wounded men back to safety for more help.

My name is Ted and welcome to my site, I have photographically documented all the Civil War graves here in town of Enfield Connecticut that I could locate. Captions are researched military records from a book assembled by the Connecticut State General Assembly in 1889 of all state veterans, pictures captions are update as needed so check back frequently for updates. All photo's are shot by me using a Canon F1N, everything is scanned at full resolution, so open them to original size for fine detail.
The 1860 census list Enfield population as 4996, we sent 420 men to war, less than half are buried in town.
As of 10/12/2009 I had submitted 178 soldiers undocumented graves buried here in town to the National Database, Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War. I have also had the SUVCW correct 27 incorrect gravesites for various reasons such as wrong cemetery and addresses. When I started this project on June 23, 2009 there were 57 Civil War soldiers names in the database as of October 12, 2009 there is 213 names.
