Both my GG grandfather and his father, my GGG grandfather served in the Confederate army. My GG grandfather was captured and imprisoned at Vicksburg. In the same family line, same surname, my 6x great grandfather and his son, my 5x great grandfather both fought in the American Revolution. The father was killed in battle. I wonder if they all liked revolution, fighting or some other reason for their loyalty to change.
