Take 3 DQs. Gen. Truman Seymour was a Captain (I think) at the Battle of Fort Sumter, but was a General at the one battle of the Civil War that took place in Florida. (I don’t recall the name of that battle.) He may or may not have been an ancestor of mine - the genealogy is spotty.

Ah, yes, I vaguely remember having heard of him. Thanks.
