There is an article on the “Jayhawkers” in Louisiana on wtblock.com. Couldn’t get the link to work. These were folks who didn’t want to fight for the Confederates.
My great great great grandfather was one of the Union Army Louisiana Scouts from the Catahoula Lake area. Not everyone was down for fighting the rich man’s war for the Confederates. Most plantations in Rapides Parish were in Alexandria and further south.
War is hell on earth and there is nothing glorious about it.
