Todd,
According to the Civil War Soldiers & Sailors site, A Robert Morgan served in the 18th Independent Battery, NY Light Artillery.He entered as a Private, and was discharged a 1st Sergeant.His record at the National Archives is on Film # M551, Roll 99.If he has a Pension record, it will be a treasure trove of information about him and his family.If you cannot go to the Archives, there is a form at www.nara.gov that you can download to request records.There are also Genealogists that do that for a fee.Your local county library may have a genealogy room that has a list of genealogists.
