Know this isn't a reenactment thought, but I have always thought that a fitting tartan for memorializing the Southern folks would be, of all things, the West Point tartan. So many Southern officers came from West Point...and its a gray tartan...

Of course it could just as easily be used for the North for the same reason.

Great great grandson of Edmond Root, Corporal Co F, 152nd Illinois Infantry who served in the Tennessee campaign and came home so gaunt his wife almost shot him for a marauder - but the family dog recognized him and saved his life by running to him wagging its tail

Great great great grandson of Norman Nelson Blake a private in the 136th Ohio Infantry who helped repulse Early's attack on Washington. Before that he was a "Squirrel Hunter" during Morgan's Raid through Ohio. When Norman returned from the war he named his first born son Grant. That name stayed in the family and has been handed down through my father, myself, my daughter, and my granddaughter.

Yet for all my Union ancestry I was born in Selma, Alabama - so hope I have a fair shake for each side.
