Do you count the Revolution, as "The Union Army"? When Hugh Mercer's daughter married the first Gen. George S. Patton, he became the 9 General in her family. Gen. Hugh Mercer, died Princeton. The Rebs had George S. Patton 1833-1864, died at Winchester, VA with the 22nd Va Inf. Laurie and I had an exchange of email "way Back" when a cousin(??????) talked to her about L/G Patton.s youth, in California. Laurie,Do you remember any more?
P.S The first of the Pattons lived in Fredericksburg, VA.
