Did they have pizza during the civil war?

It is hard to give a for sure answer as to whether "they" had pizza during the Civil War. However, the Civil War was from 1861 to 1865, and pizza was not called "pizza" until around 1889. Mediterraneans, including Greeks and Egyptians, are believed to have eaten pizza-like dishes by food historians. The first pizza shop in North America did not open until around 1905. So yes and no.
