5. The commanders of the unit from June 1864-April 1865. In a lot of cases it is not all that well documented who commanded a regiment from the beginning to end of the Petersburg Campaign.
6. Images of commanders of the unit or men whose diary entries and letters you have.
7. Newspaper articles from the Civil War era until today which focus on the unit and its role in the Siege of Petersburg

My goal with all of this is to put together the most complete Siege of Petersburg web site out there. Thank you for your time in reading this email and responding to my request if you have some of the materials listed above. If you have any suggestions about other items I could use to make my web site better, I would be happy to take those into consideration.
