My great whatever grandfather died in the Civil War. He wasn’t shy of a full load but had this wacky idea that the Federal Government didn’t own the states. He never owned a slave in his life, but died on the Confederate side. I’d like a brick placed for my ancestor. Regardless of your bias.

But the federal government was not trying to own the states when the secessions started. The secessionists just did not like the outcome of an election held according to the Constitution that their states had agreed to. Like Robert E, Lee and other good southern men, your war casualty ancestor was forced to make a bad choice by the unwise and unnecessary actions of the Dixie power grabbers.

My great-granfather died during the Civil War as a Union soldier. Since my ancestors came to Indiana from the South their were many who fought and died on both sides I am not aware of.

Not sure anymore that the right won.
