We have long memories down here. Yankee cavalry burned the family farm in Tennessee. They were from Ohio and stole a heirloom family silver tea set. I remember my grandmother still being mad about it. It was her grandmother.

what happened to your family in Tennessee was an atrocity and must be condemned. Lines of control in a mostly immigrant roving army are almost non-existent. Unfortunately, these atrocities were endemic on both sides. These considerations were never assessed when it was started.
