I could have said “great-grandparents” but then I would have had to add several “greats.” It’s just easier to say “my grandparents.” You can do the math any way you want to! LOL!!
Whew. ;’) I have no Civil War veterans in the ancestry (Rev War, yes); (just one great) great-grandfather was a bit too old for the war, and had an old leg injury. Two or three of his brothers-in-law served though. :’)
