Re: Civil war records/J. T. Scott
There simply isn't enough information in what you posted for us to be much help to you. First thing, you need to do is pin down his location at the time of the Civil War. Also important is his approximate age at the time of the Civil War. One of the things which has helped me in my searches has been having some idea of the last names of neighbors and relatives as Civil War companies tended to be raised locally with family and friends serving together.
