Most women remained at home, caring for children and family, and running the family home. Some women were able to keep businesses running. Most typically, women were part of a Sanitary Commission or church group, and worked to provide bandages, quilts, bedding, and hospital supplies for soldiers and hospitals. Some women dressed as men and joined the Army, but it is impossible to tell how many because they didn't want to be exposed.
Jennie Hodgers / Albert Cashier is a famous case. She enlisted in the US Army, fought the entire war, and then continued to live as a man for the rest of her life, even collecting a soldier's pension.
