The Kaufman County, TXGenWeb Project Site lists Mansel Whitson Hall as having been a Civil War Soldier. He is listed as "CSA" under regiment served.
The following is an excerp from Wikipedia on the CSA:
The Confederate States of America (also called the Confederacy, the Confederate States, and the C.S.A.) was an unrecognized state set up from 1861 to 1865 by eleven southern slave states of the United States of America that had declared their secession from the U.S. The U.S. government (The Union) rejected secession as illegal, and after four years of fighting in the American Civil War, the Confederacy effectively collapsed after Ulysses S. Grant captured its capital of Richmond, Virginia and Robert E. Lee's army in April 1865. The Confederate armies surrendered, and its slaves were emancipated. The remaining Confederate forces surrendered by the end of June, as the U.S. Army took control of the South.
