[QUOTE="SdoubleA, post: 2971321, member: 32961"] My paternal side fled Georgia soon after sherman marched through. They moved to Tennessee, but the war followed. They moved to Missouri, but the redlegs followed. They moved to the Nations, and one war stopped as a new one began. My maternal side was forced from Georgia when jackson stole their lands and gave them a trail for many to die on. A few survived the trail. The two sides amazingly came together, and sent strong roots deep into the ground. They became survivors through the many challenges they faced. They were never forced out again. I have been called many things during my life, and many were offensive. In my case, I always knew more about me than those ignorant or uneducated folks doing the name calling. Common sense and decency are not entitlements, they are hard earned. [/QUOTE]
