Re: Anyone with ancestors from 39th VA Calvary?

On a side note...
... It was a common habit that a popular local aging veteran be bestowed an honorary nicknamed title of either "Captain" or "Colonel", regardless of what rank the person might have actually been. Over time and family passed down stories and tales, echoing same, the factual status tends to get a bit foggy. Many have been surprized to learn that their ancestor wasnt actually a Capt/Col, from stories they had so frequently heard about..
