Topix Underground

Nothing that recent for me. My ancestors go back to the potato famine.

My cousin got some discharge papers for my great great grandfather. Discharged at Harpers Ferry, of all places. Old documents can be interesting.

He was cavalry and fought at Gettysburg. I don't know if he was part of the Irish Brigade.

I saw one when I could get on "Find-a-Grave". Like 4 or5 of my great uncles died in the same week in 1917 in Belgium.  That must have been a drag for their mother.
