FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF CONFEDERATE PRESIDENT JEFERSON DAVIS ELECTED NOVEMBER SIXTH 1861 FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF During the first few days of November 1861, the southern popula- tion was energized with electing their Confederate president. In what would become an historic event, this election would confirm what their Provisional government had already set in place. On the 6th of November in 1861, the citizens of the Confederacy, went to their polls and elected Jefferson Davis to the office of president. Their selection proved that he was a popular and res- pected leader as when he was first chosen. Davis is elected to a six year term of office as President. He'd become their only Confederate Commander in Chief. He's joined by Alexander Stephens who became their only Vice-President. Does anyone have any ancestors who wrote about this political event during the life of the Confederate States of America?
