http://www.archives.gov/   The National Archives has many links and how to order their forms to request a copy of your Veteran’s records.  Put on the form that you would like to be notified of all existing records and the cost.

http://www.google.com/  There are other search engines.  Put in the search box the State your Veteran served and other keywords like research, Civil War, Unit name & number and also his name.  You might find a distant relative who has put their info and/or scanned paperwork and pictures up on a genealogy or personal website.
