[edit] Circumstances in 1861

Here's a question for anyone who's more familiar with the subject than I am, or who knows where to find out: Louisiana took control of Fort Pike in January 1861, and Louisiana joined the Confederacy less than a month later. What were the circumstances there? The Civil War Preservation Trust says "Fort Pike was turned over to the Louisiana Continental Guard." The Louisiana State Historic Sites Web site, on the other hand, says "the Louisiana militia captured the fort...." Those two versions imply very different circumstances. Which is more accurate? -- Muffuletta 21:47, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
