I have another page for non-FOLLIS relatives in the Civil War.

We've all heard the stories about brothers fighting brothers, fathers, uncles and cousins in the Civil War. I have found several possibilities in this list of FALLIS - FOLLIS names of Civil War Veterans found on microfilm rolls at the Allen County Public Library. Their distribution shows the FALLIS-FOLLIS families were not found in every state, rather clustered where the known families migrated as well as a few surprising states. Found in eighteen of the 33 states and 8 territories including Alabama, Arkansas, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee and Texas. The states of Kentucky, Tennessee and Missouri supported both sides of the war as shown below. Invalid refers to their medical condition.
