Notes
Candidate, link-out only. Full-text search across rosters, pension lists and county histories is the right tool, but no documented search API was found and every hathitrust.org page, robots.txt included, answered a Cloudflare challenge (403) on the day of review, so terms were not read. The same books are searched through internet-archive where it holds a copy.
