The Tennessee State Library and Archive has a wide variety of (mostly
but not exclusively

Tennessee-related) UCV materials.  I think the present-day Sons of
Confederate Veterans

may also have some records-unless I'm completely mistaken, they are the
legal

successors to the original veterans' organization.

 

Good luck,

I used to work at the Museum of the Confederacy in Richmond, VA and I
know I worked on some of the UCV records (back in the early 1980s). Try

Dear Colleagues:

I am working on a bibliography of collections that contain information
and records relating to an organization of Civil War Confederate
Veterans called the United Confederate Veterans (UCV). It was a
nationwide organization that published a magazine called the Confederate
Veteran and took part in UCV reunions across the South. I am trying to
find out what happened to the local, state, and national records of this
organization after the last of the veterans died. We have very little
for the organization here in Arkansas. There was a similar organization
of Union Veterans called the Grand Army of the Republic (GAR). I have
been able to locate large collections of material relating to this
origination.  Thanks for your help.
