Alabama

 was an American and Confederate state. In 1865, according to Captain Jackson Price, the town of Blakely housed a Colonel Ezekiel John Smith, who was a 70-year-old doctor in service to the Confederate army. Price had been asked by Colonel Jubal Eustace to discover what "Doctor John Smiths" the Confederacy had engaged, and this Alabamian was the only one Price could find. (TN: Blood and Hope)
