Nothing fascinates me more than Northern born Confederates. Rebels from New Jersey are particularly interesting to be because NJ's geographical relation to the War. Border states like Maryland and Delaware who were pretty politicaly divided were only a stones throw away from Jersey. The Garden state had a significant Copperhead population, and was last in the North to end slavery. Cities like Newark, and counties like Bergen we're throughly anti war on economic and cultural grounds.
So I have to know if states, like Maryland and Delware could provide an estimated 6000 men for the Confederacy combined, would it not be possible for NJ to send something like 500 men South to the CSA? If so, is there anyway I could dig deeper to find those names?
Thoughts?
