a variety of roles, some through enlistment in confederate or union forces (generally as cooks or nurses), some less direct roles, such as keeping home and business under control while men had left, and some (through their own ambition) became spies.

Women in the civil war sometimes dressed as men to fight in the war. They also stayed home. Since the men were fighting in the war, the women also had to do their jobs too. This included making the bread, cooking, cleaning, watching the children and working in the fields. The children also helped.

There were quite a few jobs available for women in the Civil War such as nursing. Women could also become teachers or child care providers.

Neither army officially admitted women to the ranks. It seems that one or another may have fought in disguise.
