In November of 2017, Ancestry dumped 25 years of genealogy materials accumulated by the Rootsweb volunteers. Over the past 8 months we have monitored their blogs as they promised repeatedly that the data would be restored. I do not think that it will happen at this point as they now have Rootsweb directing to a generic Ancestry advertising page.
What that means for us is that hundreds of links on these pages are now bad. Please be patient as we try to recover the information. Unfortunately we do not have the resources to work on the genealogy data beyond our focus on the Civil War. Contact Us or friend ResearchOnLine on Facebook for periodic notes on our progress.

Ohio in the Civil War Network Archive The new endeavor of this website is to help preserve and catalogue documents, images, grave sites and soldiers of Ohioans that served in the American Civil War. The idea was to create a user based and built community, or social network, with a soul mission of building an ever growing compilation of historical material. With new web based technologies and scripting it is now possible to collaborate with, not only professional researchers, but amateurs, and to uncover documents that would never be brought to the surface. Well worth checking out. 02/2008
