I guess I can call this a "Disclaimer!"
Just So You Know:
I’m sure this blog is not going to be politically correct when it comes
to my descriptions regarding the period of the Civil War in Oklahoma, Kansas and Missouri and the period of Indian
Removal. I will use the terms in the
literature and reference materials used at that time. Indians will be Indians or Red Men and not
Native Americans – that was not a term used in the 1800s. When I describe the 1st Kansas
Volunteer Cavalry – I will refer to them as Colored, Black or Negroes. Those were the official terms and the
official name of the Kansas Volunteer Cavalry was the Kansas Colored
Volunteers.
It's always much easier when you can dance to the same music and read from the same page.
