INFORMATION

Although I strive to provide accurate information about the Civil War on this site, my information is only as accurate as the sources that I use. Accordingly, although I am fairly comfortable with the data published on this site, I cannot guarantee its accuracy.

I do not knowingly publish erroneous information and I humbly beseech any visitors to this site, who see an error, to contact me.

UP-TO-DATE

History is one item that tends to have endurance. Since you cannot change the past, changes that occur are usually the result of newly discovered information or modfications of presentation or access.

Because this site contains both current and old data, you might find some differences in my visit to a battlefield several years ago compared to your recent visit to the same battlefield.

But that is the nature of the beast.

Since I cannot devote a large part of my time to re-visiting battlefields, especially those out-of-state, you can expect some minor differences between my visit to a battlefield and your more current visit to the same battlefield. Hopefully, the differences are not major.

As in the section above, I sincerely request that you let me know of any changes or differences in my site compared to your experience.

PHOTOGRAPHS

A majority of the photographs on this site have been enhanced with "drop shadows", the removal of "pot marks", etc. For additional information on these "enhancements" see my Photographic Information page.

MAPS

With the exception of 19th Century maps, all maps on this site are under my copyright. (To access my maps go to the Maps page.)

The maps are not copies of any existing maps. Rather, they are my products using a variety of sources and drawn in such a way as to best illustrate the information that I wish to convey. The maps are not drawn to scale, rather, they are close approximations of the battlefield layout and the locations of people or units. For example, look at the map of the Trevilian Station Battlefield, June 11, 1864, below:


Battlefield Map 6-11
Trevilian Station Battlefield Map, June 11, 1864.


The map provides you with the relative troop locations and movements on June 11, 1864. It also illustrates the important locations regarding the battle (ie. The "Netherland Tavern"). However it is not meant to be a detailed layout of the battlefield or of the roads associated with it.

IN CONCLUSION

Please contact me if you have any problems with the accuracy or content of this site.

Thanks,

Bob Koch
