You betcha!  Go to the National Park Service's Civil War Soldiers and Sailors System at http://www.itd.nps.gov/cwss/ and click on "soldiers."  When that comes up, type in the name "Elsasser" (and if you want, "Pennsylvania").  \nI typed in just the name and got a very long list---most from Pennsylvania.
