too bad General Sherman didn't pivot from GA and take out Alabama and then head over to MS and do the same damn thing.
If you were as smart as you think you are, you’d know that by the time Grant turned Sherman loose in Georgia, the war in Mississippi and Alabama was basically over. You ever heard of Corinth, Grand Gulf, Port Gibson, Raymond, Champions Hill, Vicksburg?
Your timeline is off!

No, he still had time to do some damage in AL and MS. He did not cross into South Carolina till just after Christmas I think it was, Lee did not surrender till April. He had 3 months to cut across there, more if after he got through Atlanta he did not go to Savannah.
I don't have any of my old history books handy. You seem to be up on the Civil War, I get you know which regiments your relatives fought in and what battles, which Union regiments they engaged with, etc, etc.
