Jax, your post yesterday mentioning that Arkansas reentered the US in 1868 surprised me. I hadn’t realized (or maybe I learned but forgot) how long it took after the end of the Civil War in 1865 before the seceded states rejoined. And although most states were back in the Union by the end of 1868, Mississippi didn’t rejoin until Feb. 1870, almost 5 years after the war ended.
