<p>Attaching just middle initials instead of a name to a child was not restricted to the south. My Grandfather was born in Ohio and moved to Illinois where he was drafted during the Civil War. He was injured at Lookout Mountain and left for dead. Fortunately when clearing the field, he was found to be alive and moved to a field hospital. </p> <p>After the war, he married and his first boy, my father, was named Robert A., and his second boy was named Byron E.</p> <p>He had two more sons, and he must have gotten over his angst from the Civil War as they were named Jasper Logan and Roger Sherman.</p> <p>Art</p> <p>Strangely, Dad named his first son Robert Arnold and stuck a Jr. after the surname.</p>
