My many times great-grandfather moved from Georgia to Texas right after the civel war. My great-great grandfather did, too. He wasn't from a wealthy family; they were 'Backwoods Georgians,' but we know they did have at least one slave because after the war, he drove my g-gf, who was a boy at the time, and his mother to Texas. They were the only ones from a large family who survived the war. The father & older boys all went off to fight and never returned. We don't know what happened to the girls.
