  • The Other Side of the Monument: Memory, Preservation, and the Battles of Franklin and Nashville
    THE OTHER SIDE OF THE MONUMENT: MEMORY, PRESERVATION, AND THE BATTLES OF FRANKLIN AND NASHVILLE by JOE R. BAILEY B.S., Austin Peay State University, 2006 M.A., Austin Peay State University, 2008 AN ABSTRACT OF A DISSERTATION submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2015 Abstract The thriving areas of development around the cities of Franklin and Nashville in Tennessee bear little evidence of the large battles that took place there during November and December, 1864. Pointing to modern development to explain the failed preservation of those battlefields, however, radically oversimplifies how those battlefields became relatively obscure. Instead, the major factor contributing to the lack of preservation of the Franklin and Nashville battlefields was a fractured collective memory of the two events; there was no unified narrative of the battles. For an extended period after the war, there was little effort to remember the Tennessee Campaign. Local citizens and veterans of the battles simply wanted to forget the horrific battles that haunted their memories. Furthermore, the United States government was not interested in saving the battlefields at Franklin and Nashville. Federal authorities, including the War Department and Congress, had grown tired of funding battlefields as national parks and could not be convinced that the two battlefields were worthy of preservation. Moreover, Southerners and Northerners remembered Franklin and Nashville in different ways, and historians mainly stressed Eastern Theater battles, failing to assign much significance to Franklin and Nashville. Throughout the 20th century, infrastructure development encroached on the battlefields and they continued to fade from public memory.

  • Distinctive Destinations by National Trust for Historic Preservation
    PRESS RELEASE Contact: Kellye Murphy [email protected], 615-791-7554 or 866-253-9207 Franklin, Tennessee Named One of America’s Dozen Distinctive Destinations by National Trust for Historic Preservation Franklin, TN (January 13, 2009) – Franklin, Tennessee was named today as a 2009 Dozen Distinctive Destination by the National Trust for Historic Preservation. The prestigious title of Distinctive Destination is presented to cities and towns across the country that offer an authentic visitor experience by combining dynamic downtowns, cultural diversity, attractive architecture, cultural landscapes and a strong commitment to historic preservation and revitalization, according to the National Trust. In each community, residents have taken forceful action to protect their town’s character and sense of place. Richard Moe, President of the National Trust for Historic Preservation had this to say, “Franklin has fostered a strong preservation ethic that has helped retain its distinct sense of place and protect the region’s architecture, village communities and traditional farmsteads. Its rural atmosphere and southern charm make it a vacation destination not to be missed.” Downtown Franklin, a 15-block historic district on the National Register of Historic Places, offers an eclectic mix of more than 70 trendy boutiques, antiques shops and restaurants. With a history that dates back more than 200 years, it offers a Great American Main Street experience with commemorative brick sidewalks, Victorian architecture and beautifully restored historic buildings. Franklin also boasts an impressive lineup of family-friendly festivals that take place throughout the year. Franklin is well known as the site of the Civil War’s Battle of Franklin.

Selected News and Feature Stories 3 I. Project Background and History In 1995 Congress invited proposals from across the United States for the National Heritage Areas program of the National Park Service. A total of forty-one states submitted proposals and eight were ultimately selected, including Tennessee’s application for a statewide Civil War Heritage Area prepared by the Middle Tennessee State University’s Center for Historic Preservation (CHP) with the assistance of Congressman Bart Gordon. On November 12, 1996, Congress passed Public Law 104-333, which authorized the creation of the Tennessee Civil War Heritage Area. Tennessee, thus, became part of a select group of regions across the country where a federal, state, local, and private partnership coordinate ways to preserve, interpret, and enhance valuable historical and cultural resources. The Tennessee Civil War Heritage Area is one of eighteen congressionally designated heritage areas across the country that represent stories, people, and places of national significance. The National Heritage Areas are: 1. Augusta Canal (Georgia) 2. Automobile Heritage (Michigan) 3. Blackstone River Valley Corridor (Massachusetts and Rhode Island) 4.
