The Compromise of 1877 was nicknamed...

This woman spent her entire life enslaved in Mississippi. She finally gained freedom at age 64 when the Union army seized the plantation she was forced to work just before the Civil War came to an end. While freedom was a glorious feeling, with no money, land, or education, she is worried about what the future holds.

Her primary concern is finding her three children who were sold years before when the plantation owner was in debt. She hopes that Mississippi will soon be re-admitted to the United States and that the national government will provide some aid and assistance in creating a new life.

As a former officer in the Confederate Army, this man is very concerned about his fate. He is unsure of how the national government will treat him once his state is re-admitted to the Union. Will he regain full citizenship despite leading a war against his own country? When he returned home to the South, his plantation was no more. His home had been burned by the Union Army and the two dozen men and women he kept in slavery were still living on the plantation with no other prospects. At the very least, he hopes his state will quickly be allowed to rejoin the country and once again be able to determine its own affairs. He is concerned that if those freed from enslavement are given the right to vote, they might push for changes in traditional Southern society.

This man was the owner of what was one of the largest plantations in the South before the war. At one time, he enslaved more than 200 men, women, and children and generated immense wealth growing and exporting cotton from a massive plantation in Southern Virginia.

Now that the war is over, his future is very uncertain. Upon being readmitted to the country, he must honor the 13th Amendment which outlawed slavery, and realize that this reality is inevitable. Above all, though, he hopes to maintain a high social and economic status despite the changes to Southern life that may occur following the war.

This man has returned home – a small farm – after three years of serving in the Army of Northern Virginia. He fought under the command of Robert E. Lee, hoping that he could preserve the Confederacy. Now that the war is over, he finds that the livestock on his farm were slaughtered by the Union army while passing through on Sherman’s March – the campaign where the Union army destroyed everything in its path.

This Congressman representing the Union state of Ohio was a supporter of Abraham Lincoln, but believed his plan for Reconstruction was too lenient towards the South. He believes that the South must meet many requirements before being allowed to send their representatives to Congress and rejoin the country.

He is primarily concerned with protecting the rights of those freed from slavery and punishing Confederate officers who lead the rebellion against the United States. Also, he believes Congress should have control over creating a plan for Reconstruction, while the President merely sees to it that the plan is carried out.
