Especially since I am a descendant of a Mississippi Walters clan. It’s a little scary to look into the past for information on your family roots. You just never know what you are going to find. But, it has been very exciting to learn that my people were quite possibly rebels (in a good way). I am also relieved that it appears, for the most part, they were not slave owners. Though I’m not totally confident about who my Walters people were exactly, I have enjoyed learning about the world they lived in, things they faced, and the courage they quite possibly showed.
