Stephen, you did not deserve that cheap shot and I know you are man enough to disregard it. Thanks for trying to keep the thread on topic, but it quit working awhile ago.
Maybe it is a simplification, but all the evidence I see indicates Tories and Rebels passed on some bitterness to future generations, but I don't reckon many cared to show pride in having Tory ancestors.
The thing that intrigues me is that I thought the Tories or Loyalists actually outnumbered the Rebels...just did not have the same dynamic leadership or amount of resolve. Anyone care to comment or show me I am mistaken about it?
