There is much more to this story than the account of the soldier from Iowa. The home of John Harvie Marks II was used as a hospital to care for the Union soldiers. They were cared for until they were able to return home, and some of them returned, but some of them remained in the area. Contrary to these opinions, "The Rebs" did demonstrate honor and a high degree of compassion to these soldiers. See the "Civil War Recollections of Martha Harvie Marks, Daughter of John Harvie Marks II, born in 1841" This record was published a 1939 family history.
