Traveller was his nickname? I thought that was the name of his horse.
I guessed both "Mary" and "Anna" for his wife's name, along with Martha and Abigail those were my only 4 guesses, but not "Mary Anna".
Maybe you could accept just "Appomattox" for the one answer along with some other spellings? And seems like you could squeeze out a few more questions to make this quiz more robust. Perhaps some questions about... Ulysses Grant, the Army of Northern Virginia, Gettysburg, Pickett's charge, Sharpsburg/Antietam, or some of the tactics he used. Perhaps throw in a few quotes.
Shame that this man is being tarred and feathered in public opinion now. It's unfair.
