My g.g.grandfather, George Levi Palmer, was a private in the 7th Illinois Infantry, the first Illinois unit called up in the Civil War. Several companies of the 7th Ills. armed themselves with Henry lever action rifles. The Henry had a 16-round magazine, and could pump out 28 rounds per minute. It was called "The rifle you can load on Sunday and shoot all week." The first on-line forum I joined was on Civil War history, and Henry Rifle was the first screen name I ever used.Jack
