Carolyn, you wrote: I think I entered the Seven Pines conversation trail at some midway point. My 3rd great grand-uncle, Edward Porter Alexander, wrote about it and included some personal commentary about a few of the wounded and killed. Excerpts are contained in an edited volume of his memoirs: Fighting for the Confederacy (pp. 83-89). Gary W. Gallagher, ed. U of N.C. Press, 1989. Carolyn Timmann I would like to talk to you, as E.P. Alexander is in my family line also. I have a book he wrote that is signed by him, "The Saga of the South" , the Island Press, Ft. Myers Beach, Fla., 1965 and I have some excerpts (several pages of "The South And The Nation" also by the Island Press,1963. I also have a write up in one of the Civil War magazines, of E.P. Lawton's( believe this may have been the uncle of the the Edward you speak of) death during the civil war and his wife going to get his body brought home. Please email me at LDSED@aol.com. I am related through the Bassinger line whose daughter married E.P. Lawton. The Bassinger line descended from Peter Tondee of Savannah, of Revolutionary times. Thank you. Linda Snow Davis
