"It would seem that would have been fiction or extremely rare according to the census records."

What, Chief? Jarman enlisting, or Ohara getting him out, or Wayne's and Ohara's characters being married? The latter would be most rare, although the reverse happened at least once; a Northern bride was taken to her husband's rice pantation on coastal Georgia before the war. She wrote a book of her experiences. I believe the basis for getting Jarman released was a play on the substitute system during the war. Cash was mentioned, if I remember correctly. Stan
