It was started to remember the 650,000 Americans that laid down their lives fighting in the Civil War. One of them was my great great grandfather Jesse H. James. He was a Private in Marshall’s Battery in the Arkansas Light Artillery. In 1863 he died of a “brain fever” while Fittingly working in a Confederate ordnance shop building wagons. Like all soldiers that have passed. They always leave behind a strong hardened woman. This was my Great Great Grandmother Missouri Ann Cleaver. She along with 4 kids plowed fields and picked cotton to survive. Doing anything she needed to do, to take care of family. Including sheltering my great great grandfather’s cousin. Who stayed with them under the name of “James Ally”. Who’s real name was Jesse James, but that’s a longer story for another time. Missouri Ann followed the picking work down to Texas, where she died in 1907. Today is a day to pray for All the lives laid down for freedom🙏🏻🇺🇸 #jessejames」5月26日 0時03分
