Thanks for giving me another opportunity to post the list of US Civil War massacres, as of February, 1863.
There are eight so far and there will be another eight added by war's end.
The total killed will near about 2,000 not counting numbers who died in Confederate & Union POW camps.
The perps seem to be roughly evenly divided between Union, Confederate and Native American actors.
