One of my favorite bluegrass/Americana songs. It reminds me of my
Great-Grandfather x3 (Confederate), My Great-Grandfather x3 and my
Great-Uncle x2 (Union) and their hardships during the Civil War.

Enjoy!

Nice.

I had a great great grandfather who died at Andersonville.


My wife's great grandfather was a Union 'doctor'. She found his
discharge papers while looking
through piles of 'stuff' left by her mother.


The best we can tell, most of my ancestors were still in Europe during
the Civil War ... except possibly a few Cherokees (still undetermined)


My mom's family was in Harry's favorite town, New Haven, in the late 1750's
from a cousin doing genealogy.
