Union soldiers in Ala
Mon Oct 2 23:34:56 2000


I am new to this forum, so this may be a simple question. What could have encouraged a man, who was born and lived in Alabama all his life, to become a Union soldier. It was so surprising to find my ancestor was a Union soldier in the 1st Ala. Cav. E & K.
