Tomorrow is the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Chickamauga, a battle that took place in north Georgia and east Tennessee. Several of my extended family's Bailiff and Moncrief ancestors fought on the Confederate side. My husband's Easterly ancestors also fought for the Confederate States of America, and he is more than a little miffed to discover that since he's Detroit born and bred.
