Steve, I think your suspicions are correct. On the subject of the Shenendoah Valley, the Fed. Govt. came in and burned the people out to create the Natl. Park. It was like sherman again. I have older relatives that dwell (fixate!) on this. Forced out at gunpoint and the houses torched. Your right, on sheredan's orders, not shermans during the Civil war. And that custer goof was glad to carry it off. The war just continued for these patriots. It is unbelievable what these people went through. However, when you meet and talk with one, you feel you have met the quintessential American!
