Yes, flushing toilets did exist during the Civil War, although they were not widely used or common. The first modern flushing toilet was invented in the late 16th century, and by the 19th century, they were becoming more prevalent in urban areas, particularly in wealthier households. However, many soldiers and civilians relied on more primitive sanitation methods, such as outhouses and pit latrines, due to the lack of Plumbing infrastructure in many regions.
