My Stuart family history includes passing by the Lee estates (on the way to smaller lands) and being invited to stay for a break.
It is a terrible thing to lose a war.
“ It is a terrible thing to lose a war.”
Yes. It is! I’m afraid we are still losing from the looks of the red state - blue state map and the wackos that took over the House.
My wife is Levi Wade and Virginia Barksdales gg granddaughter
Plantations from Nashville to Yazoo city to Natchez
Their grandfather donated the land for the District of Columbia
They never recovered
You gets a hint of faded gentility and that’s about it
Wade was arguably Tennessee’s largest landowner at the time and Virginia had two illustrious brothers including one a general killed at Gettysburg
It’s a very small connect from MacPherson to Zinn in my opinion
Both vilify southerners to make brownie points with minorities and lefties or so they think....incorrectly in my view
