Any of you Civil War buffs know where the best Civil War website(s) info can be found on troop routes and such? I know not much activity happened in my neck of the woods here in Fl but I know they had to come and go from location to location.

Thanks to both of you

As I said I know there wasn't much activitiy here in west central Florida but I do know Tampa had some conflicts and that there were a few "chases" of runners along our coastal areas especially Bayport and Cedar Key. What I am looking for is the sentry posts that were all along the coast that were posted to watch for Union patrol boats and such. I know there has to be alot of these along this coast as there are so many points that made good viewing locations. A Civil war observation camp here and there would make me very happy! And they had to be supplied.
