Talk:List of Confederate duels

Harris
- Thanks for creating this interesting article! My one concern from a quick glance is that I don't think Nathaniel H. Harris was the Harris referred to by the quote. Nathaniel H. Harris was a fairly obscure colonel at the time the quoted article was published, and I don't think he ever had anything to do with Polk. Isham G. Harris (CSA Governor of Tennessee) is maybe a better possibility, but I haven't read enough about Polk to have a good idea of who Harris would be for sure.

 * Thanks for bringing your subject experience to the table! Unlinked for now and maybe an obvious Harris will emerge at someone point in the future. Again, TYSM. jengod (talk) 13:50, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
 * From a quick search, given that it's a Tennessee paper, i think you're right that it's probably Isham Harris (he seems to have commissioned Polk
 * as a Confederate officer?) jengod (talk) 13:55, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Isham is certainly the only one that would make sense. The only two more prominent Confederate Harrises I can find are two farily obscure militia general who wouldn't have had much or anything to do with Polk. Hog Farm Talk 04:11, 10 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Ok imma link him and the worst that can happen is it's wrong and we learn something. :) jengod (talk) 04:46, 10 September 2023 (UTC)
