Re: Illinois at the Battle of Fort Gregg
Hi John,
Thanks for posting this. I watched the clip and noticed a name on the Washington Art. monument in the clip, I did a small amount of research and believe the soldier may have been the brother in-law/cousin of one of my ggg uncles. Kind of neat. Thanks. Can you really claim collateral family members, if so I have broken the hold on "cavalry only" ancestors (yea I know, it's only through marriage)! There may still be hope for an infantryman yet! Seriously, it looks like an interesting book. Thanks. bg
