This is the story of one man's journey through life, including the Civil War, three marriages and three children. James Gill, Jr. was a young man whom many would call a rascal. His marriage to Rachel in 1858 was on again and off again more than once. The story is he left her just weeks after their marriage, but there is no evidence available to determine what caused the separation. They reconciled in late 1860 just prior to the start of the Civil War, and conceived their only child, Daniel.
