    Two of my Great Uncles fought at "Cold Harbor." The younger one had to have his fathers signature showing consent for his enlistment at age just under 16. And in a similar vein to the boy who changed his name to Lincoln, either during or shortly after the war, the Uncles gained a baby brother, whose given name was Lincoln. What state? Pennsylvania.
