[Opinions] Strange American Civil War Names
I've had this list for awhile, so I just decided to post it. Perhaps a year ago, I came across a site listing names, ages, infantry, etc. of soldiers in the American Civil War (can't even remember if they were Union, Confederate, or both). For the life of me, I can't relocate the site (have no idea what it was called), but I did save a few names that I thought were interesting. Just wondering what all of your thoughts on the names are (and if you've ever heard of anything like the site I've described, then bonus points if you give me a link):Cyrenius Free - Age: 17Norwood Tobias - Age: 25Amon Plowman - Age: 34Decamp B. Voorhees - Age: 21Lot Pumphrey - Age: 21J. Tully Quick - Age: 28Peter Unger - Age: 22Martin Zaboraski - Age: 18Truelove Brown - Age: 32Register Cook - Age: 30Blumer H.
