Lots of Mississippians have ancestry to Confederate soldiers. It's part of history whether you like it or not. And it's also harmless.


I have multiple. On both sides. One was in the Calvary with Forrest. One was at Gettysburg. One was at Chickamauga. Would have been two but one was killed near Chattanooga. Have others that were in more minor engagements.

Ironically the only ancestor I have found to have been at Shiloh fought for the Union and came in with Buell on the second day.
