Thanks. Now I have more to read. Seth Bradshaw as of last year has a large picture in the Edmonson County Courthouse. Because of the stupid stuff going on now in popular culture they may be going after him and his kind.@Bert Higginbotha I recommend this book if you haven't already read it. It was wrote in 1868 I believe. And goes into detail about a lot of the orphans. I found write ups of my grandfather and your grandfather, Seth Elmore.
There's also an account of a federal officer riding to a part of the federal line that took heavy losses. After the bloody battle of Shiloh.
''The barren county boys fought us at this part of the line''.
Here's a link to the book to read online for free:

One thing that stood out to me. Was the sheer amount of men from Barren county in the roster list. That's not even counting the 200 men that served in the 2ndKY cavalry (Morgans) from Barren county.Thanks. Now I have more to read.

Gibby was one of a kind, even in those days. It is said that if you had the third base dugout and made an out, you DID NOT take a short cut near the pitcher's mound to return to the dugout. The pitcher's mound was his and there would be repercussions if you invaded his territory. He also said half the plate was his. You could have either half you wanted, but the other half belonged to him.
I visited aunt/cousin up there in 2017. Love Omaha. Have fun and enjoy.Spent a great Sunday with GD visiting Omaha Zoo. Every animal we saw she said was “so cute”. Me, not so many. 4+ hours in sunny 90+ weather. Brutal on this old man. Good number of indoor exhibitions that saved me. Very nice zoo.
Good morning from ATX. Currently 76°F and cloudy. Today's high expected around 95°F. Great chance for rain tomorrow.
Tough outing for our Cats yesterday. Ugh. Aggies were brutal. Cats face Gators today in elimination game.
Heading out for a hike around 6:15 am. Great day to be alive. Wishing y'all a good one.

Tough road ahead for the Cats. 3 straight wins to advance seems like a tall order. Not impossible though. Gotta get past the Gators first.Good morning from ATX. Currently 76°F and cloudy. Today's high expected around 95°F. Great chance for rain tomorrow.

At one point, Mays, Mantle and Snider were the CF for the 3 New York teams. As odd as it seems, there was a period of 5 years or so that for one reason or another (ie Mays in the Army for a year, etc) that Duke Snider had the most impressive stats of the three.A little Willie Mays nostalgia from the collection I managed to keep intact since the early 1960s -- with some older cards from an uncle who got bored with them and passed along his late 1950s stuff...
Yeah, the Duke gets lost in a lot of the 1950s baseball nostalgia...My father-in-law, great guy, RIP, was an Irish kid who grew up in Flatbush...He had a framed back page of the NY Daily News that showed him and an older brother sneaking over a fence to get into Ebbetts Field back in the 1940s. Some newspaper photog happened to see them and thought it made an amusing photo, then he yelled at them and they were ballsy enough to give him their names: Tom and Jake Dowling... "America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time."At one point, Mays, Mantle and Snider were the CF for the 3 New York teams.
