Discussion Americancels- Did You Have Family In The Civil War?

[DarkStar]

As I've mentioned before, we've traced our ancestry back quite a bit like most here

On my mothers side, we had some who fought in the Union army. On my dads, we don't have it confirmed fully, but we did see records of some distant ancestors in Virginia and Kentucky. We for sure know we weren't aristocrats whom constituted the slave-owning class, and we do know of some Scots-Irish roots there. Problem was, that region during the conflict was very divided, and the reason for West Virginia existing is because that part of the State stayed with the Union.

it feels kinda odd I have family who likely engaged on both sides, but ofc that was quite common: I mean, it was a "house divided" after all.

Yes, my ancestors on my father’s side fought exclusively for the Union. The Civil War is easily the saddest episode in US and could’ve been avoided.

You mean the war of northern aggression?

I live near a few Confederate graveyards...

There are new signs up that say, "metal detectors are not allowed in them." I guess there was a few robbed graves recently.

I'm not quite sure tbh

But on my mom's side she has a lot of native American ancestry. Apache I think

There are some pretty fine native foids where I live. Unfortunately they're chad only as well, plus I never see them date outside of their race.

The Norwood reaper is fucking viscous.

I'm so scared to go bald tbh because I shaved my head completely one time a few years back, and everyone was afraid of me.

People thought I was a skinhead
