Today's Newsday carried an Associated Press obituary of a Confederate widow, 133 years after the American Civil War ended. The Web tells me that the last Union widow died in her log cabin in 2003. I put it that way only because the obituary in today's paper noted that this woman only talked to the press after reading a story claiming that someone else who had died was the last living Confederate widow; Janeway may not have been the last Union widow, though if so, any left appear to be keeping quiet.
