All things Confederate in Louisiana, Texas, and surrounding  region

This site is dedicated to all the Confederate Veterans who served the states of Texas and Louisiana, their forefathers who founded this great nation, and their sons and daughters who have defended this nation against all foreign threats.  It is also dedicated to the families of the Confederate Soldier, especially those forced from their homes by the Yankee invaders.

"There are still a large number of mounted men from this corps...stripping the people of everything that can sustain life.  I saw families of women, children, and negroes who had absolutely nothing to eat, and their houses and quarters stripped of everything - cooking utensils, bedding, crockery, etc.  Some rascals are beginning to set fire to deserted houses of those who have fled to Goldsborough - also burning fences."  Brigadier John M Oliver, 3rd Brigade, 2nd Division, XV Corps - Union Army officer.

This site concentrates on  the War Between the States in the Trans Mississippi Department.
