The title of this blog, Opera Cum Fidelitate, is the motto of Georgia Military College, my Alma Mater. The center piece of campus is the Old Capital Building, which was the seat of the state government prior to the Civil War. My time there always made me feel connected to history. Service With Faithfulness could also be the motto of my family, so I thought it was an appropriate title for a blog that explores the history of my ancestors.
