Being born in the South is a mistake from nature

Just found out one of my ancestors fought for the Confederacy 😭

Ok so he fought for the states to have sovereignty? Interesting.

I seem to remember a trade ship warning and eventually firing at a northern blockade during the Lincoln era.

Unfortunately schools only teach that the civil war was about slavery. That was an issue obviously. But it was about so much more than that

Some of my family is southern. Could be why I like pickled eggs and collard greens with baccon.

@HobNoblin My Great Grandmother was born and raised in Georgia, she made the best vittles.

You are not your ancestors

Well it was a different time also if it was more than 3 or 7 generations ago. All is forgiven also were they drafted. No fault if that happened.

Please stop this. You are a good person born into a situation you chose while you were between lives as a challenge.
Your ancestor fought for state's rights because the north was attempting to slowly impoverish the south by blockading trade with the UK and Europe, Lincoln, and Buchanan before him, wanted the tobacco and cotton wealth for the union. The civil war started when a southern trade ship fired upon the northern controlled Fort Sumter in South Carolina to get through a blockade. What they're "teaching" in schools now are pure lies.
