Aside from my own family, friends, and whatever else I stumble into working on I have also begun working on a project to make profiles for every member of the 57th Ohio Infantry Regiment. This is the Civil War regiment most local to my current location. I find it quite interesting recognizing people and places I have heard of while working through it. I have linked the project space page below if you'd like to join me.
