Dear Ms. Martins,

Thanks for posting your request on History Hub!

We searched the National Archives Catalog and located three series that may contain information about your grandfather’s enlistment in the Army: Enlistment Papers, 1798 - October 1912; Registers of Enlistments in the United States Army, 1798-1914; and Record of Enlistments, 1891 - 1914 in the Records of the Adjutant General's Office, 1762-1917 (Record Group 94). For access to and/or copies of these records, please contact the National Archives at Washington, DC (RDT1) via email at archives1reference@nara.gov.

We hope this information is helpful. Best of luck with your family research!
