Expansion started on June 7, all statements are sourced, no grammatical or spelling mistakes, and a really interesting hook. @Drmies: and @FloridaArmy: you guys did a great job and made a really interesting article. I really love Southern history in the 1870s-1880s and how chaotic it was. - Jon698 talk 19:48 8 June 2020 (UTC)
