Anderson was born in Kentucky but made a living, if you will, along the Kansas-Missouri border as a bandit and horse thief. Quantrill, oddly enough was originally from Ohio. Indeed both were common criminals. Anderson was a particularly violent and sadistic type, a veritable psychopath. Missouri's militia crumbled early in the war and what remained of it descended into banditry much to the distraction of Robert E. Lee.

Associating these men with the Confederate Army is an insult to the men that served in the Confederate Army.
