Georgia was the site of a number of battles during the American Civil War, including the Battle of Pine Mountain. Colonel Thaddius Riker - a Union Army officer and distant ancestor of Captain William T. Riker - was present at the battle. During the battle Thaddius was seriously injured. His life was saved when a member of the Q continuum who would come to be called Quinn carried him to safety following the Battle of Pine Mountain, Georgia. (VOY episode: "Death Wish")
