Should mention that Southern states representatives were mostly not present...

Would the following Mathew Brady photo be of use/interest? http://memory.loc.gov/service/pnp/cwpbh/01700/01713v.jpg

Virginia, Tennessee, and Louisiana all had representation in the 37th congress, in those areas that were controlled by Union forces; were these truly all vacant for the 38th congress, or is this an oversight? -- Golbez ( talk) 18:23, 10 February 2012 (UTC)
I think more clarity is needed about the difference. From what I can tell from looking at the names, my sense is that the Unconditional Unionists were effectively Republicans by another name, whereas the "Unionists" (sans unconditional) were more of a third force. Unconditional Unionists like Henry Winter Davis, for instance, and B. Gratz Brown, were essentially Republicans. From what I can tell, most of the (Non-Unconditional) Unionists like Garrett Davis and Reverdy Johnson, on the other hand, were old Whigs who were in the process of becoming Democrats. But more clarity from reliable sources would be helpful. Obviously, the Congressional Biographical Directory won't provide any such clarity. john k ( talk) 04:48, 20 November 2012 (UTC)
The subsection titled "States seceded" is changed to "States in rebellion" to conform to contemporaneous terminology used in the United States Congress. TheVirginiaHistorian ( talk) 08:37, 14 April 2014 (UTC)
Per earlier discussion, correspondence with the Office of the Historian, U.S. House of Representatives, History@mail.house.gov, confirms that a section of Jefferson's Manual explains the terms of service for House Members prior to the 20th amendment. Members’ terms of service began on March 4 and ended on March 3. Hinds’ Precedents lists the precedent cases that established the rule. Electronic copies of the House Precedents are found here: About precedents of the U.S. House of Representatives. It seems to me that any other answer is WP:OR original research, and that Wikipedia Congressional pages should conform to the official U.S. Government sources on the subject.
