On this page you will find information on the
Tinders who fought for the south during the
Civil War. So far we have identified 26.
Most of the material, is from a combination
of sources, including several of the Virginia
Regimental series, Unit rosters on the internet,
the OR, the family tree on line, and the
Southern Historical Society Papers.
Where no information is given, there may be
some at the other family site listed in my links pages.
