From the
battlefields of the
Civil War, to the wheat fields
and orange groves of
Orange County, veterans
came to forget the past. |

|
|
Officers and
enlisted men both came here to make their home, raise families,
and leave their
mark on our history.
Many are still here, buried
in our local cemeteries. |
Civil War veterans
that fought in the battles, then built the cities that make up
Orange County today, come alive with photos, biographies, and
illustrations of their history. |
 |
Here,
from an American Civil War aficionado
comes a comprehensive book on the veterans of Orange County.
From a database of over 1,000 men, are over 800 burial locations
with GPS coordinates, in twelve cemeteries, plus 280
biographies,
16 extended biographies, with 100 photographs, maps, and charts.
