Philly - there's more to it than that - my Confederate ancestor - who was from Virginia - was captured and imprisoned at Fort Delaware from whence he was paroled. He went to Philly and settled there. After the war, he met and married my great-great grandmother there much to the chagrin of my ggg-grandfather, who had been a a corporal in Battery C. 5th U.S. Artillery, who is reputed to have pursued my Confederate ancestor with his service pistol.

Lamh Foistenach Abu!
