The Great Grandfather on my husband's side, served in the Civil War, as well as his brother. After his service, he found a young lady he wanted to marry. To persuade the young lady's mother, he went into town to the local dry goods store and bought an entire bolt of calico fabric to give the mother. The young couple married. He was nicknamed "Calico Joe" (Joseph McCallister Cazzell)
