Janet...miketredoak@aol.com or down at the bottom left of my message click the blue 9th.Battalion Tennessee Cavalry link to the website. I do recollect that Alice said JL Montgomery was one of those,"Unreconstructed Rebels" after the war. Fought the federals in Tennessee,Louisiana,Mississippi,Georgia,South and North Carolina. He helped hold the line against Mower's furious infantry assault at Bentonville and stayed till the end. You should be very proud.
