Clara asked about my phrase "wayward Virginians."  For "wayward," 
Webster will do just fine: taking one's own way; disobedient; froward. 
The wayward Virginians I was referring to were those who for a brief 
four-year period rebelled against and departed from the federal Union 
they have been a part of for the other 200+ years since that Union was 
created.
