Hi Peggy,
Thanks again for the info. i was thinking since Ky is next door the Unionist would just hop accross the border but apparently not so much. Did the Unionst West Tenesseans join the Union regiments from other startes because they were stationed next door to them? In the same vein while researching Unionists in Northern Al some Northeran Alabamans joined the 50th Tenn USV along with various other Union Regiments. Did the Unionsists and Confedrates gradually reconcile after the CW? Are Tenn schoolchildren taught that Tenn has a diverse and complex history regarding the CW? I have a BA from Cal State Northridge in History and I have learned far more from you and certain other posters then what I learned At CSUN or Santa Monica High School about the CW.
Thanks Again;
Leonard
