Family Tree

The next leg of the family tree search sees Tom investigate his great-great-grandfather's participation in the American Civil War - and taking part in a re-enactment himself. Harvey receives interesting news, whilst avenues are opened for Tom following a car accident.

Tom's cousin, Rick, an American Civil War enthusiast, helps Tom try to find out more about his great-great-grandfather Charles's mysterious activities as a soldier in the war. They visit a Civil War expert, Harvey Krupp, who agrees to investigate further on Tom's behalf and invites him to take part in a Civil War re-enactment that he organises.

A car accident leads Tom to meet a beautiful aspiring writer, Ally Keele, and the attraction appears to be mutual.

Tom gamely participates in the Civil War re-enactment with Rick, Julie, and Harvey, but war isn't all it's cracked up to be. During the battle, he gets a phone call and some news from England. After the battle, Harvey gives him some even more interesting news about his great-great-grandfather, which explains a lot of things.
