  Davis and Lincoln together form an interesting trivia question--What is the only state to have two men both born in that state serve as President at the same time? &nbsp;Kentucky

  Any time questions are asked about things and beliefs that happened over a 150 years ago you must remember how times gave changed. I am 77 years old and just in my lifetime immense change has taken place but we should maintain history and learn from it and respect it.

  Shelby Foote wisely begins and ends his beautiful trilogy with Davis. To understand Davis properly is to understand the Civil War.

  As a African American who’s ancestors were once enslaved in bondage and one who grew up in the Deep South, my view of this man (who my home county is named after) is he was a traitor. But l also understand the times in which he lived. Our ancestral land/home (on which my family was once enslaved on) was left (by his former master) to my great-great grandfather who passed it on to his sons. It remains in our family to this date — after over a hundred years after we’d acquired it. —That was the way it was and l understand that. No need for bitterness now! It was what it was and history cannot be changed

  My mom&apos;s paternal grandmother, Elizabeth &quot;Bettie&quot; Tillman Davis Hooks, was adopted by Jefferson Davis when she was 5 years old along with her sister. She cared for him in his final days in her house on Chippewa Street in New Orleans where he died.

  This is a &apos;Wonderful &amp; Intelligent&apos; portrayal of the History of U.S. Civil War, seemingly not from the viewpoint of the Republican Party (Northern Perspective) nor the Democratic Party (Southern Viewpoint), but a rather &apos;Neutral Perspective&apos;, perhaps a British viewpoint.? I learned SO MUCH, from this documentary, I can see why this type of historical honesty is not taught in schools and why we (U.S. Citizens) are so ignorant of our own history. THANK YOU &apos;Peoples Profiles&apos;..!!

  I was surprised to see Jefferson Davis in my family tree book, a few years ago. &nbsp;Turns out he&apos;s my 5th or 6th great uncle

  As the great great great grandson of a union soldier hearing about my ancestors exploits against the south, this was very informative.
