Introduction: Volunteers have entered more than 213,000 names of Indiana veterans into this searchable database. Originally indexed from 1913-1917, information on service was culled from the muster rolls of Indiana’s infantry, cavalry, and battery units to assist soldiers and sailors in obtaining their pensions. Contact the Indiana State Archives for the possibility of additional material.
