I'm in, finally.
*snerggle*
Been bad over on the Caption Popeye the Fatah Man thread...
Been weird over on my 'home thread'.
And been bouncing around various and sundry threads since.
Had a great-great-(or so) grandfather on mom's side of the family in the Civil War.
He was blind in one eye and still had shrapnel in one leg.
He was a grizzled old man by the time mom heard about him.
He lived until the 1900's, and was about a quarter mile from home on foot when he was killed by a new infernal engine, the automobile.
I'll have to ask mom about hard data, like exact dates and such, but that won't be too hard.

Afternoon Darksheare. It's always good to see you get "in".
If you find out anything about your great-great... let us know. It'd be interesting.

Good evening Darksheare.
Better call your mom and get us some details! Does she still live in Ohio?
