1. Re: [Fwd: [cuzzinz-list] Black journalist defends Confederacy] [1]
I think the Confederacy really missed the boat , when they didn't free there slaves and make use of these loyal black southerners, just think if Lee had 1000, 000 extra fightingmen say in 1863- 64 or better yet maybe, the south would have been better off to have made its constitutional claims in court where they may have had a chance to win. I believe Lincoln didn't have a choice in what he did once the south seceded he was following in the foot steps of Washington who put down the west's attempt to seced
2. Re: Flaming Civil War Research [1]
You are a boneheaded neo-confederate who knows nothing, I have NO Yankee ancestor, I'll put my southern ancestor up agin yours anytime, I was kicked off the southern list for merely bringing up slavery , because you all were afraid to discuss it, isn't slavery part of southern history or just the part you don't wish to talk about, but I would like to thank those neo-confederates whos ravings has done more to expose there theory for what it is the antique, outdated, ravings of lunatic madpeople, I couldn't

5. Re: Does this mean Abe was a draft dodger? [1]
I believe that Lincoln was already a veteran of the so called Black Hawk war. I understand that in the south you could "dodge the draft" if you owned a certain amount of slaves and couldn't southerners pay subs too, a fellow told me his ggrandfather paid for a sub to the confederate government.

6. Re: Squirrel Hunter of the Civil War [1]
The only squirrel hunters I every heard of were the hunters that marched off to defend Cincinnati at the Governors request. I don't know of any pages on the web please post them to the list if you come acrossed any. There is a roster of the hunters in the library at Gallipolis, Ohio also does any one know the address of the Latter-day Saints new family history site. -----Original Message----- From: shelea To: CIVIL-WAR@rootsweb.com Date: Wednesday, May 26, 19
7. Stevenson's Depot,Confederates run like scared rabbit's [1]
Now that I got your attention , does anyone know of any Confederate accounts of the battle of Stevenson's (Stephenson's) Depot VA., July 20,1864 also called the battle of Carter Farms. There General did say his men ran like a bunch of scared rabbits. General Ramseur Division, Earlys Army of the Valley, I think
8. Other duties [1]
There were other duties a unit could do , at the battle of Cedar Creek my gggrandfathers 91st Ohio was guarding cattle, at the second day at the battle of Lynchburg they supported a artillery battery also don't forget the flankers, those that marched as skirmishers on the sides of a column incase of attack when marching in column.

9. Re: Stevenson's Depot,Confederates run like scared rabbit's [1]
I think your wrong about that , I have a few union accounts, thats why I want confederate accounts. It was a Union Brigade of the Army of West Virginia (which included my gggrandfather) commanded by Cavalry Brig. General William Averell. -----Original Message----- From: Nikki To: thomas Date: Sunday, March 07, 1999 12:01 PM Subject: Re: Stevenson's Depot,Confederates run like scared rabbit's >Don't know of Confederate accounts - but the Union troops were 'led' by

11. Re: [Fwd: Does this mean Abe was a draft dodger?] [1]
I think you are wrong if I understand what your saying, your writing is a bit to high brow for me, I am saying, in the confederate government there was a deferment for planters that I think owned more then 20 slaves , if you can't stand facts or the discussion there of, to bad. I think your a bit paranoid, I saw a opportunity to discuss deferments and did, I think it is a interesting part of the war. I know Shelby Foote talks as if only the north had subs. the bottom line is when it comes to the Civil
12. Re: Deserters [1]
My mother always said her ggrandfather was shot for deserting, I'm not sure if he was union or confederate, but if he were from Ohio I have read there were about 50 or so Ohioian shot for deserting would anyone know if there is a name list of these men.

Does anyone know if a Andrew lee from Lawerence Co. Ohio served in any West Virginia or Ohio regt. also is there a genealogy of Robert E. Lee on the internet. and what degree of kin do you have to be to a Confederate soldier to join the Sons of Confederate Veterans.
14. Re: Buffington Island, Ohio, Battlefield [1]
I think its a lost cause, its not Gettysburg or someother big battle field so nobody cares enough to save it, I have been there, it would make a nice preserved battle field with a walking path or car tour maybe some new monuments but like my GGGrandfather and his Regt. the 91st Ohio's part in the battle, its a day late and a dollar short, if they saved it I wouldn't even care if they put a big OLE Confederate monument to Morgan and his men there on Ohio soil , I would even contribute to it.

If it was W.VA.

16. Re: Monitor and Merrimac [1]
Always glad when someone brings up slavery and the civil war, as I have come to believe it to be the first cause of the war. Certainly Lincoln did free the slaves by his Fighting the war, whether that was his or the norths intentions at the beinning of the war or not I think, its a fair statement and of course the victors write the history that stands, as the Romans said "to the victors go the spoils" I would like to give some quotes from men in my gggrandfathers Regt. the 91st Ohio, on slavery and the wa
17. Re: Black Confederates Article [1]
I ran a cross a very interesting article in a Lawerence Co, Newspaper from 1862, I think it was taken from a New York paper, it told of some Union soldiers going up against some black troops, but the reporter seemed to think the union boys not use to seeing Negroes just mistook dirty tanned southern white boys for Negroes. I didn't copy the piece at the time because thats not what I was working on , but if I get down there again I will , because I haven;t read it in any of the black confederate books and I
