why did the yeoman farmers/poor/free blacks/indians of the CSA militaryfight against the damnyankees?

Because Southerners would shoot them themselves if they didn't.

just one reason = THEY WANTED LIBERTY, from the filth that came down from the north.

They didn't want their slavemasters to shoot them.

i am reminded of the words of a slave captured after shooting at several damnyankee soldiers. when asked why he as a slave was shooting at the union army, he said "because you bastards are still down here". sums up in a few words why most southrons fought to the bitter end.

LOL Sounds like a made-up story.

if it is a "made up story" the the damnyankees lied about it-it's right there in the official report of the investigating officer and has been quoted in MANY books.

sorry, you LOSE!
