My forebear fought the Texas revolution.
He he himself a fmr slave he also fought for the Confederacy marched in arms with the wise legion his brother also a fmr slave with the 45th Virginia an honored Confederate veteran his sisters husband herself also a fmr slave was a SGT with Chapman’s battery BLM enabling yankee jackasses can pound sand.
Btw his former owners not only freed him but gave him the best farm land for him and their family with some money too.
What did the Union army do? While he was away fighting they ganged raped his wife burned their home ransacked the food supply and she ended up committing suicide after the war.
