There were many Southern / Northern crossings. One general fought with the North and changed sides to the South! One big name was General Thomas of Virginia who fought with the North. For the South, look no further than the Northerner Pemberton who surrendered Vicksburg to Grant.
David Farragut was also a Southerner who fought for the North. His state escapes me, but he won the battle of Mobile Bay, and during that battle, it was he who said "Damn the torpedos. Full speed ahead." Winfield Scott was also a Southerner, but other than proposing the Anaconda Plan and serving as General in Chief of Northern Armies(for him a desk position) until McClellan succeeded him, he didn't do all that much, and certainly never saw battle.
: John Gibbon was from North Carolina, had a brother in the rebel army, but fought in the Army of the Potomac the whole war as a brigadier/major general.
Montgomery C. Meigs was another Southerner who stayed loyal to the Union. He was from Georgia, but remained in the US Army where he attained the rank of Brevet Major General (permanent rank of Brigadier General) and served as the Quartermaster General of the US Army. Meigs is best remembered for one thing. He was particularly incensed at Southern officers who deserted to join the Confederate army, and he hated Robert E. Lee in particular. So, when the time came to establish a new cemetery to bury Union soldiers killed in battle (the cemeteries in Washington, D.C. being full), Meigs selected Arlington, which at the time belonged to Robert E. Lee. The land was confiscated, and Arlington National Cemetery was established.

The most important long term result of the Mexican-American War wasn't the expansion of the United States by a third (if including Texas), but the experience gained by the American officers that fought in the war. I believe this because the same officers that fought in the Mexican-American War also fought in the American Civil War, which if it weren't for the Mexican-American War the officers in the Civil War might have had different tactics, which could have lead to a different outcome of the Civil War. This alternative outcome would have been the Southern United States successfully succeeding from the Union and the eventual takeover of the Northern and Southern United States by Britain, Spain, and France.
