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.
