>In my family, scraps remain. On my Mom's side of the family (yes, Koziol doesn't seem Southern and it's not - my Dad's family came here about 100 years ago) we still have Confederate currency, a CSA sword, and other memorabilia.

Where did your Dad's family come from?
Since I brought up the subject, the Empies came from the Rhine valley some time after the Thirty Years War. Empie is a corruption of some German name, possibly Omichen.
All my ancestors would have fought on the Union side if at all. We don't have any memorabilia that I know of.
