I know I'm running late on posting this, but I finally made the time to do it. Especially after I read what President Hopeful Gephardt (D-MO) said about the Confederate Flag that flies over a Confederate Soldier monument on the South Carolina's Statehouse grounds."is a hurtful, divisive symbol and in my veiw has no place flying anywhere, in any state in this country,". Thank you Mr. Gephardt for stating your position we now know you will be, or currently are a patsy for the NAACP.
You notice nobody ever screams for the American Indian, if they screamed loud enough about the scars and injustice of the past and present, and pointed their fingers at the stars and sripes, would we have to bring it down? Change our nation's flag? (the KKK carried the stars and stripes first, and also the Christian flag, before the stars and bars.)
OK. I'm off my soapbox. But as a Civil War Re-Enactor I beg people to really read the history, slavery was a backburner issue, slaves in south free-'1863, slaves in north free-'1865(if this was the issue, why wait til after the war. Why not free them first.)
Now to the list.
This is all the Kessingers(with all the different spellings)I have found.
First off lets start with the Confederates since some want to erase these people from history.
From Virginia- Goodall Kesinger 166th VA Militia
Henry W. Kesinger 166th VA Militia
J.W. Kesinger 166th VA Militia
3rd SGT James N. Kesinger 166th VA Militia
3rd CPL Richardson F. Kesinger 166th VA Militia

Let's not forget that these men fought to keep the federal government out of their lives and actions. Makes more sense than hundreds of thousands of men fighting over slavery.

Well tha tha tha that's all folks. If I missed anyone let me know who they are so I can put them in my notebook(real pen and paper) no more computer storing information for me. I think I understand the Unibomer's problem with technology, he must have bought his computer at the same place I bought the two of mine so far.
Oh yeah, by the way, only four of all the above was wounded in the Civil War and none of the above died in the war.
Sorry it took so long. Til next time,
Danny Kessinger
