Supposedly my 3rd ggrandfather, Solomon Wheeler Parsons, died at the
Battle of Lone Jack on 16 Aug 1862, in Lone Jack, Jackson Co, MO. However,

of North versus South. Northern states were still facing debt from the
Revolutionary War, while southern states had paid off most of their debt. So
when Alexander Hamilton proposed that the federal government assume
Revolutionary War debts, the South was definitely not on-board. In order to
gain support for the legislation, Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, and
James Madison worked out a compromise. The agreement would put the
