Today at Old St Patrick I noticed the flags we helped put in on the unmarked Veterans graves, someone put flagholders in them so they could be found next time THANK YOU!

FOUND: 8 more soldiers, that brings the total found to 265 out of 271 the rest are unmarked/lost.............. The cemetery work is done.

On January 13, 2010 At the Enfield Central Library will have "Meet the Author" at 7 PM 104 Middle Rd Enfield featuring my new book. I will have about 1 hour slideshow of Enfield's Civil War veterans and a open discussion to follow, a limited number of books will be for sale and orders taken. Hope to see you there........

11/4/2009 Today we helped put out flags for Veterans Day at Old St Patrick. Sunday we helped at Enfield Street Cemetery we placed about 25 missed/unmarked graves. Next year I see would like to every Union veteran grave is flagged.

10/24/2009 Smugmug has changed there formatting on the pages so all galleries are locked in journal views except the newpaper clippings. The was a problem with the text running in to each other and no format and was very difficult to read, They are suppose to be correcting that problem soon. If you click a photo in a gallery you can see what I am talking about. It is out my control for now.
Sorry.......... Thanks for stopping by.

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.
