To: Leaning Right

On my mother’s side, her family fought in the Revolutionary War......against the revolution. They had a huge land grant from King George, so fought as loyalists for Great Britain.

She also has a president in her lineage. Unfortunately, it was the president of the Confederate States of America, Jefferson Davis

Lol. Very interesting family line!!! My mother’s line had several who fought under Quantrill. One of them was “Gone to Texas” after the war (like the Outlaw Josey Wales). Another was a key source of what historians know about Quantrill’s activities during the war.
