I found my 2nd Great Grandfather Lenig in the 1860 census.  My Great Grandfather was 2 years old.  I then found his draft registration for the Civil War!  That was dated June of 1863.  This is so cool.  His name was Harrison Lenig.  His occupation was listed as a laborer.  This was in Snyder County Pennsylvania.  I would like to find out what kind of laborer he was.  I wonder if he worked the mines?  I also wonder if he fought in the Civil War.  Pennsylvania was a Union State and that makes me happy.  I'm sure there is a way to get the information I want, I just need to know how.
