Confederate Documents

These are not "converted" U.S. documents. These are official Confederate documents, found in various regimental collections and in the Museum of the Confederacy in Richmond. We plan on expanding our Confederate collection so that it will equal our U.S. document collection. Keep watching for more of these documents. Please note that where we refer to forms my number, the numbers come from the Army Regulations of the Confederate States, 1863 edition.

Kits  
   
Papers of the Confederate Soldier  Papers of the Confederate Soldier (CWP201) - This kit includes five forms that would have appeared in your personal history if you had served until the surrender at Appomattox.
