As new host of the Shiloh Forum, I thought it would be helpful to find out how many of our Forum members had relatives that fought at Shiloh. I had three: My G-G-G Grandfather, Lyttleton H. Johnson, and his half brother, William A. Harper were both in Company D, 6th Mississippi Infantry, and I spoke of them in my last post. The third was my G-G-G uncle, Drury C. Godwin, who served in Company E, "Liberty Guards," 22nd Mississippi Infantry. He was wounded in the battle, and his injury eventually forced him to transfer to a mounted unit, where he served in the 4th Mississippi Cavalry.

So I ask, how many of you had relatives that fought at Shiloh? I look forward to your responses!
