Very good Malte. What was the make-up of the 15 members? And what surpreme Court Member played a pivotal role in the outcome?

Malte279 · **Reply #481 on:** May 26, 2006, 05:22:58 PM

I don't know if those gentlemen used any make up

:
Actually this is a second question, but these are the names of the people:
Thomas F. Bayard
Allen G. Thurman
George F. Edmunds
Frederick T. Frelinghuysen
Oliver Hazard Perry Morton
Josiah Gardner Abbott
Eppa Hunton
Henry B. Payne
James Garfield
George Frisbie Hoar
Nathan Clifford
Stephen Johnson Field
Joseph Philo Bradley (He was the one who played the pivotal role as this Republican replaced independent member David Davis so the margin was turned in favor of the Republicans)
Samuel Freeman Miller
William Strong

I was looking for Davis, as he was to be the 8th Democratic member of the commitee

Malte279 · **Reply #483 on:** May 26, 2006, 05:58:49 PM

Yeah, he decided it by being replaced. It was the vote that was cast instead of his which decided the matter and the vote cast instead of Davis' was that of Joseph Philo Bradley.

Yep, it's your turn.

Please name at least three pairs of famous Northerners / Southeners who were friends or relatives but fought on different sides during the Civil War.

I never ever forbade you to do that -_-

Lincoln had relqtives on both sides, mary Lincoln had one brother fight for the Union and 3 (I believe) for the Cionfederacy. That's one.

Malte279 · **Reply #489 on:** June 26, 2006, 02:53:47 PM

I think Mary Lincoln had no less than nine brothers fighting for the confederacy, while she was a vivid supporter of the federal cause. She definitely makes for one example. Please give me two more.

Nick22 · **Reply #490 on:** June 27, 2006, 02:24:03 PM

Andrew HJohnson was another, and I think Stanton had sons on both sides...

Malte279 · **Reply #491 on:** June 27, 2006, 02:34:16 PM

Please give always at least two people to make a pair. Name a southerner with whom Johnson was a good friend. I couldn't find anything about sons of Edwin McMasters Stanton. Can you give me any sources?

Nick22 · **Reply #492 on:** June 27, 2006, 03:34:17 PM

I was merely guessing with Stanton...I don't think that that answer is correct, after reflection.

Malte279 · **Reply #493 on:** July 24, 2006, 01:57:37 PM

Some historical movies also mention friendships between northerners and southerners who fought on different sides during the war. Some cases are really well known. Come on, it is not that difficult.

Nick22 · **Reply #494 on:** July 24, 2006, 02:07:34 PM

Did Nathan Beddford Forrest have relatives on the Northern side?

Malte279 · **Reply #495 on:** July 24, 2006, 02:22:25 PM

I asked YOU about this :huh:
But no, I don't think he had.

Nick22 · **Reply #496 on:** July 24, 2006, 02:25:57 PM

Geez...

Ok then... I'll gyuess Robert E. Lee and Jefferson Davis had relatives on the Northern side (family that is..')
