“You have made us for Yourself alone, O Lord, and our hearts are restless until they rest in You.” - Augustine of Hippo

Her eldest brother Levi and her half-sister Margaret Kellogg were for the Union, while her youngest brother George and her three half-brothers had joined the Confederate Army, and her three half-sisters were the wives of Confederate officers.
