'Under age' people have taken part in every war since the dawn of history.

Records, when kept, are imperfect at best.

People also lie and the powers that be allow that or ignore it to their own advantage.

Is there a hyphen between a thirty year old civil war?

Yes, there should be hyphens in "thirty-year-old" when used as a compound adjective before a noun. The correct phrasing would be "a thirty-year-old civil war." The hyphens help clarify that "thirty-year-old" is a single descriptor for the civil war.

How old did one have to be to serve in civil war?

The proper age was 18, but the enlistment of men/boys was very sloppy, so many boys managed to enlist. There were 250,000 to 420,000 boys who fought in the war. Each side banned boys from joining and fighting but, in spite of this a tall 14 or 15 year old could blend into a crowd of men and slip through in the hurry to form a unit. The standard forms of ID that we have today did not exist in the 1860's and there were no computers or phones to determine how old someone was, so the boys of the north and south slipped through and fought in the war. A good book on this is "The Boys War."
