Can anyone help with where this person needs to go to access the information on her ancestor?

Thanks, Anne

Subject: Amos Smith-Battle of Five Forks


Ann, My great-grandfather, Amos Smith of Co "A" 7th Maryland Volunteer Infantry, was wounded at Gravelly Run on April 1, 1865 during the Baattle of Five Forks,  he died on April 5, 1865 and is buried at City Pont National Cemetery, Hopewell, VA.  Amos was born in Belmont Co., Ohio on 21 Jan 1829.  I have no record of his parents or siblings, do you possibly know anywhere I might go to find out anything about him.  I remember my parents throwing away all of his letters when I was a child, so I never had a chance to read them.
