SUMMARY:The Blue and the Gray: Researching Your Civil War Ancestors
DESCRIPTION:The Blue and the Gray: Researching Your Civil War Ancestors \npresented by Russell P Baker \nThe Civil War 1861-1865 was one of the most important events in U.S. History. Millions of men served in the armies of the North and of the South. The records of military service and service pensions created during and after this great conflict often contain a goldmine of American genealogical and family history information. \nRUSSELL P. BAKER\, archivist\, lecturer\, historian\, teacher\, and author\, is a native of Arkansas. He attended the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville\, where he became a member of Phi Beta Kappa and received a B. A. in History in 1967. In 1985 he earned a M. A. degree in Public History by the University of Arkansas at Little Rock. In 2009\, he retired after nearly 40 years with the Arkansas State Archives in Little Rock\, where he was that institution’s Archival Manager. When he retired\, he was Arkansas’s senior archivist. Over the years\, he has taught history and archival courses at several local colleges and universities\, including UALR and Pulaski County Technical College. \nMr. Baker is the author of several award winning historical and genealogical publications. His Historical Directory of Arkansas Post Offices 1832 – 1971 and Arkansas Township Atlas are modern classics. During his professional career\, he has contributed articles on genealogy\, southern history\, and religion to local\, regional\, and national publications. He is also the author of a number of articles for the online Encyclopedia of Arkansas. \nOver the years\, he has been a frequent lecturer on modern family history research theory at regional and national genealogical conferences. He is a life member of the Arkansas Genealogical Society and has served on its board of directors for five decades. He is a past president of that organization and he has been editor of the society’s quarterly publication\, the Arkansas Family Historian since 2013. \nHe is member of the Vimy Ridge Missionary Baptist Church in Alexander\, Arkansas\, where he has served as a Sunday school teacher and church organist for over thirty years.
