I am always amazed when I read the questions that were asked of all Southerners who filed a claim with the US Southern Claims Commission. If you read thru them all, they give an interesting insight into the feelings of the US government during reconstruction. Questions 44 - 51 would disqualify just about everyone living in the South. No wonder so many claims were denied. I don't think a full blown Union Loyalist could answer them all the right way.
My favorite 2 are # 5 & 14. especially where they refer to Bull Run with both names Bull Run & Mananas. Whats your favorite 2 questions.
