[QUOTE="wlamarparmer, post: 1263119, member: 18681"] Swore when all this started, was not gonna get involved, Hello, just not me. Have great admiration for both Jo and M-5, as men and taking care of their family/life as need be. On different note, civil war probably predicated on issues that normal man was not involved in, as in even today. Late 1864 Confederates sent detachment thru south-central Alabama to enlist all age eligible men, because census showed more adult males than serving. These people were slaves to their own existence, could care less for states rights or slavery. Contrary to popular opinion, think very few deep south actually owned slaves, just a north/world perspective. Can find no evidence of any of my ancestor ever owning a slave, but from deep south, I'm included in that mind set. Agree with another poster on another thread on prejudice/racism more prevalent in north/Midwest than south. I'm bred/born/raised deep south, for most part "we take care of our own", no matter what color Your skin. Posted incident on other thread. Ancestors per se, get past my great grandparents, could care less, supposedly my ancestry goes back to vikings and William Wallace of Scotland fame, I Don't Care !! BTW tried to post similar other threads, some reason did not post, maybe good . [/QUOTE]
