My Great Grandfather and his brother rode with Forrest.

My G-G uncle was killed at Brice’s Crossroads, just a day’s ride from his home, with one silver dollar in his pocket.

I think some of my family fought for the South also. They did the killing instead of getting killed however. Least that was the way my daddy told it.

BTW, did you know that George Patton used to ride around on horses with John Singleton Mosby who i seem to recall did a little teaching to him.I have to look that back up.

parsy, who is kinda un-reconstructed

I met a NBF researcher and one told me the family has letters that show him in a different light, although they will not release them.

Forrest was probably the first WBTS cavalryman to seek and destroy opponents.

bert, any stories handed down from your granddady and his brothers?
