Title: Haphazard research
Product review: As stated in prior reviews the research for this book was haphazard at best. Many of Mr Wafford's biographies have incorrect or incomplete family data, or the families of similarly named soldiers were intermingled. A simple review of census records might have straightened out some of the misinformation.Although much of the biographical information is suspect, the book is helpful as a research tool. Rather than going to each regiment and company roster to compile a list of Davidson County Civil War soldiers, they are already listed. Individual data can then be cross referenced with Civil War records, censuses, marriage records, cemetery surveys, etc.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
