...and one of my Great-Grandfathers actually fought in the Civil War, 
or for the benefit of "furners", "The War Between the States". As a 
teenager he was thrust into the fight at the Battle of Chickamauga when 
the War reached the outskirts of LaFayette, GA., where he, my 
grandfather and father were born.
