My grandmother is 90years old and is going nuts about a $1million confederate note that went missing recently. Did they even print such a thing? She has had it all her life. It accompanied little things from her grandparents estate.

Grandma must be remembering things differently. Here is a listing of the first issue, largest bill was $1000. 1861 C.S.A. Currency - First Issue (http://www.csacurrency.com/csacur/cs101106.htm) The 5 other issues were smaller with big bills being $100. In 1861 the confederate states autoized printing $1,000,000 in notes but not just for a single note.
