I know of at least three uncles who died while Union soldiers in the Civil War. One died of disease at Vicksburg, one was killed by sniper fire near Columbus, Tennessee, and now my great-great-grandmother's brother who died at Nashville.
I've always wanted to visit Civil War battlefields when I retired. I never realized I'd have this personal connection to deepen the experience.
