Interesting that you talk about Winston County not seceding. I think there were a few counties here in Mississippi that didn't secede either. The south wasn't quite as unified as some might like to think during those crazy times of the Civil War.

Ohio was just as crazy during the Civil War. It was home to the Copperhead movement of all things. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copperheads_(politics)

Illinois fielded the only state unit armed totally with lever actions. Trouble is, they never got much further than southern Illinois and Missouri.
