I know this is a long shot, but there was an old fantasy book that I read in 5-6th grade that I loved, but I can't remember the title or author. If anyone could help it would be appreciated.

It's about a girl and her younger brother, who (if I remember correctly - it's been a couple decades) find a pocket watch in a tree in the park. The needles start to spin backwards and it takes them back in time to around the civil war era I believe. Where they meet a young soldier and thus ensues grand adventures before they are returned home.

As I said, its been a long time and I only remember vague details, but if it sounds familiar to anyone, please let me know.
 
Tough one but this could be Ghost Cadet by Elaine Marie Alphin (1991) as it involves a boy, a pocket watch, and the Civil War. Only it’s not time travel but a ghost of a young soldier from the war.
