Civil War Q & A

Okay, ya'll. You do know why I'm posting this, right? Just so I can show off all of my knowledge on the Civil War and make everyone else feel infirior to my supreme intellegent existence. (You do know I'm being sarcastic...right?) Well, I won't expect you to know all these questions but, here goes:

1. We'll start with an easy one. What was the name of Gen. Robert E. Lee's horse? What color was his horse?
2. `Nother easy one. What was the name of the man who shot Abraham Lincoln? What was his occupation?
3. Let me think...um...okay. I've got it. Who was the man who replaced General Hooker right before the battle of Gettysburg?
4. What regiment was Joshua Lawrence Chaimberlain colonel of?
5. Brace yourselves. This is the trickiest one yet. How many Union casualties did the Battle of Gettysburg produce? (You can round it if you want, but exact numbers would be better. Of course, I already know them.)

Answer away!

Travallor? Travelor? Traveler? How ever it is spelled. Was he grey?

John Wilkes Booth, and actor.

The rest I have no clue!

Good job! Of course, Traveler was white...but pretty close. I'll bet Star Wars Freek knows the others.
