Union General George Thomas (who was from Virginia and whose family disowned him for staying loyal to the Union)...............Is buried in Albany NY.
As a teenager, he saved his family from slaves during the Nat Turner Rebellion. The lesson he took from the rebellion was different from the other plantation owners. Instead of banning slaves from learning to read and write, he thought to himself, "Is it really a decent and moral thing to own other people?"
Plus, he married an anti-slavery New Yorker. I'm guessing he's buried next to his wife in New York State.
