Subject: add a battle to Wiki page.
I was doing some work on old newspaper and found a story about Stuart's cavalry capturing some Michigan surgeons at Emmitsburg.
The newspaper information is: Ann Arbor, Michigan The Weekly Michigan Argus - Jul 17, 1863 Friday
See next column to left of this link, then all the way down at bottom. [1]
============================
[edit]I create family trees on Ancestry dot com using the information off of the old newspaper stories and I write a blog about some of the stories I find. I was starting to do my write up on the newspaper story "Michigan Surgeons Captured" and thought I would get some background information on the battle of Emmitsburg. I did a search for "emmetsburg civil war battles" and found the following web page:
The Battle of Emmitsburg - by: Michael Hillman [2]
==================================
[edit]I then looked at the other search results and the following Wiki page was the next one on the list:
List of American Civil War battles From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
======================
[edit]I thought I would read up on the battle of Emmitsburg but the Wiki page does not have an "Emmitsburg Battle".
I am posting this talk page to you so that you will read up on the battle of Emmitsburg if there indeed was such a battle and using the information from the web site and newspaper story you will be able to add the information to the Wiki Civil War battles page.
The old newspaper from Ann Arbor, Michigan that I cite above has many civil war stories and maybe you will be able to find some new information on other Civil War battle that is not on any other Civil War write up.
