I was wondering if there is anything written that can tell me what went on at Cypress Inn, Tn. That is where my ggrandparents lived.........they had to leave......they lived right at the most southern tip of Tennessee and Alabama.......I have heard stories that it was pretty bad with the soldiers from the north and south crossing the border. My ggrandfather died in Mississippi,(1862) and the family moved into the other surrounding counties, mostly Maury County. joyce ---- KIDDYOWEN@aol.com wrote: > The Civil War was a horrible war here within the United States - a time when > family member fought against family member.
