I knew this would get us started again. All I inherited was my GF’s broken and smashed pocket watch. My oldest brother got my GM’s 25 cal. pistol that she carried into the fields for protection. My great grandfather was sergeant, then brevet captain in the Alabama infantry. His family became sharecroppers picking cotton.

All the ugly truths about what was done and why have been covered up. New York won that war. It still controls the rest of the nation to this day.

One of my grandfather’s relatives rode with McNeill’s raiders when they crossed the Potomac and captured General Crook. I have the Whitney Dragoon sidearm which he supposedly took off General Crook.
