The Sons of Confederate Veterans (S.C.V.) is a fraternal organization composed of male descendents of the men who served in the Confederate Armed Forces during the War for Southern Independence. Their emblems include the controversial Confederate battle flag. Their core responsibility is articulated in a charge given to them by Lt. General Stephen D. Lee which calls on them to defend the heritage, honor, and reputation of the Confederate soldier and the Cause they fought for.
The Cause they fought for was individual liberty, state's rights, the original Constitution and the right to secede. In essence, Confederates fought an aggressive Union which would not allow the states to exercise an accepted right of secession. This right had been exercised by all the original states when they withdrew from the government of the Articles of Confederation, and entered the present day United States of America. Further, the Tenth Amendment reserved all powers not addressed in the Constitution to the States and people respectively. And lastly, the new union was formed as each individual state entered the union.

A northern state.

Well, my immediate family plus two older aunts who moved to be close by are all that’s here.
The other 100 plus in my clan are still down there with you which will always be home for me....Prep-Ole Miss...long ago.

I live now in Williamson county on the old Dawes Plantation remains just a hair from the old Harrison House of Battle of Franklin fame....I can see Carnton too from the hilltop behind my home....and Winstead and Breezy hills are about 800 yards to my northwest ...if you know much about the battle
For the first time since I left Jackson for good 28 years ago I feel at home more or less. But I still go down there a lot...several times per year.
You're trying to be insulting, aren't you?
