RE: Worthless, but entertaining
My "Worthless" Post has gotten me to thinking - HOW DID DAVIS' SON , ALONZO, MEET DR. STUART'S DAUGHTER, CAROLINE? They were not born until 1871 and 1872. Davis' home was in Delaware in 1865. Stuart's was in Virginia. Davis moved to Baltimore in 1890. Stuart stayed put, in K.G.
During the war, Davis made only one trip to Canada, via the Secret Line. On his return, he was captured in Ohio, and spent the rest of the war in Prison.
(Davis may have been Stuart's Spymaster, in Richmond.)
The children reached marrying age about 1890. Their daughter was born 1902.
I can only guess that Alonzo pulled an "Oldroyd Walk" and traveled the route his Father had followed in 1865 and met Caroline.
Anyone have thoughts about ex-spies having reunions, or some such, so that they could renew old friendships? This might be something worth researching.
