UNION GENERAL GEORGE HENRY THOMAS OF VIRGINIA, HERO!

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Henry_Thomas Although I have read frequent and favorable references to Gen. George Henry Thomas, of Southhampton County, Virginia, i.e. , where he and his slaveholding family fled and hid in the woods from Nat Turner's men, it was not until reading about celebratory reference to him by the great Robert Purvis, that I determined to look him up! What a great leader and American patriot !
