Religious objectors to serving in the Union Army - Steve - 05-11-2023 06:57 PM I thought this news story, from a week ago, about conscientious objectors from Pennsylvania during the Civil War might be of interest to some of you here: https://www.ydr.com/story/opinion/2023/05/02/religious-objectors-in-york-county-and-pa-history/70174461007/ RE: Religious objectors to serving in the Union Army - RJNorton - 05-12-2023 04:52 AM Very interesting, Steve. I can recall the textbook I used in class when I was teaching, and I am positive the words "conscientious objectors" were never mentioned.
