There are an enormous number of resources on this topic. I am suggesting you look at the links already gathered in these places.
Keywords:
Keep in mind that many countries have civil wars. You might consider including a reference to the US or United States if your results are not what you expected. If you search the name of a person, try it with and without the middle initial and/or name. If the name seems common, try adding "civil war" to the search.Civil War Biographies
