Reading the new bio of Civil War Confederate General James Longstreet. Directly after the war he visited a friend in Mississippi named Peyton Manning. Undoubtedly ancestor to the Archie Manning clan.

Longstreet was an interesting character, especially after the War. He was the only Confederate general to embrace Reconstruction, and he joined the Republican party. As a result he became a pariah, of course.
