Very interesting Jim a Southerner in Kansas (or Missouri) with a family would have been between a hard place and a rock. One of my gg uncles, Thomas J. Jackson, moved from MO to KS abt 1856 (settled near Council Grove) but by time the war started he had moved back to Monroe Co MO where "early in the war" he got up a company of men to fight for the South and was elected their Capt. (pbly MSG) but according the the County history "He did not survive, dying of typhoid fever..He left a wife and 4 youngin`s....I have never found where he died or was buried...

When I was growin up my Dad and his bothers would often talk about "The War" and since several of them were WW 1 vets I first assumed they were talkin about the "War to end all Wars" but eventually realized they were referring to the WBTS as that was the one that caused so much death and misery to our family.
