I share your feelings Kevin....
I started out just researching my family tree, but when I reached the War Between The States era, my focus began to change. Almost every branch of my family was settled in the same community in Autauga County Alabama. Every family was touched deeply by this war. They lost children, husbands and property to the conflict. They fought and died side by side to protect their homes and way of life that had been invaded...no grander reasons filled their minds. The children grew up without fathers and uncles during the hardest of times during reconstruction. They endured and rebuilt and I am a result of that determination. I hope my study and recording of their lives & sacrifices honors them in the way they so desired....and truely deserve!
