Thought some of you would be interested in this that came from Compton's encyclopedia on the net. We have a William Tecumseh Brisbin of Boalsburg, PA in the William (son of Capt. John) line. Ryan, I will try to post some of my Brisbin stuff after football season. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------- SHERMAN, William Tecumseh 1820-91). Ranked second only to General Ulysses S. Grant as the greatest Northern commander in the American Civil War, Gen. William Tecumseh Sherman was a master of modern warfare. Like Grant, Sherman was born in Ohio when it was a frontier state. He was named Tecumseh for the Shawnee Indian chief who had terrorized that region a few years earlier.
