John Wortman Morris was member of peace movement, conscripted into Confederate as part of the "Chain Gang". He survived was sent home due to injuries, and joined the Union in Springfield, MO because of his treatment at hands of Confederacy. A biography of his life was written. I have a photocopy if you have Chain Gang members in your family, I can send you copies of those pages. Joyce E.Hodges 17952 168th St S Bonner Springs, KS 66012
