There are two close to me:
1) THe Pearce collection is in Corsicana, Texas at the Navarro College Campus in the Cook Museum. It is a collection of Civil War memoribilla from the collectors that was donated to the college.
2) In Hillsboro,Texas on the Campus of Hill College.

There are several in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania - my favorite CW site.
Many of the battlefield sites will have museums, particularly the more well-preserved sites. Try Manassas, Chancellorsville, Spotsylvania, and Fredricksburg - all in Virginia; Vicksburg, Mississippi; Charleston, South Carolina (Fort Sumter). The National Civil War Museum is in Harrisburg, PA.
Enjoy! If you have questions, ask.
