Yes and every family had a William and a James, all around the same ages, and the family names show up on both Union and Confederate rosters so there is just no way to know from this late date if it was a direct relation, a cousin, or a complete non-relative to our family at this point.
All I care about is that the right side won, or we'd all, north and south, east and west, probably be living in small insignificant European controlled, European styled puppet countries today most likely, certainly not in a unified, stong global superpower leader of freedom.
