As a genealogist, I enjoyed reading this. Living in the South, there's a certain reverence for the Civil War, or to clarify, The War for Independence. The South didn't want this war, they were thriving and the North was dying. What is interesting is, it depends where you were raised, what you were taught about that war. When you consider the two wars, the Civil War was over economics, where the Revolutionary War was against the English, in our present state, it would be a war against the government.
