"Don’t forget the Texan Unionists."

In 1860 Texas did not have the huge population it does today -- my numbers show Texas provided about 87,000 Confederate troops and only 2,000 Union troops.

But there were regions of strong Unionism including some of my ancestors in the Texas Hill Country.

[Verginius Rufus]

Texas population in 1860 was 604 thousand. 22 states had more people in the 1860 census.
