  • 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.

  • Tour Stops Section #11 Battle of Kennesaw Mountain
    1 The Bandy Heritage Center for Northwest Georgia Atlanta Campaign Driving Tour Kennesaw Mountain Tour Stops Section #11 Battle of Kennesaw Mountain Heavy rain plagued both armies as they withdrew from their Dallas-New Hope-Pickett’s Mill lines during the first weeks of June 1864. Forced to return to the Western and Atlantic Railroad to supply his men, Sherman concentrated his forces in the Acworth-Big Shanty region. The lack of roads and the impassable conditions of the ones that existed prevented Sherman from continuing his strategy of moving around Johnston’s flanks in order to pry him from his strong defensive positions. A more direct approach to Atlanta would be needed. Johnston, having no choice but to shadow Sherman’s movements, established a new line south of Acworth. Taking advantage of several prominent heights in the area, Johnston’s line ran north from Lost Mountain to Gilgal Church, turned east at Pine Mountain, and extended past Brush Mountain to the Western and Atlantic Railroad. This line enabled Johnston to protect both his communications and supply lines as well as the approaches to Marietta. Taking advantage of the wild and broken terrain occupied by his army, Johnston turned the ridges and hills into an extended fortress of earthworks, rifle pits, and artillery firing positions that dominated all avenues of approach across his front. Reinforced by the arrival of Major General Francis Blair’s XVII Corps of McPherson’s Army of the Tennessee, Sherman began his advance to Marietta on June 10, 1864. McPherson, on the left, moved along the railroad toward Marietta.

    x Frederick H. Hackeman CAMP 85 December 2019 Commander’s Ramblings Brothers, As voted and approved at the September meeting, the camp will collect dues for all three levels of the SUVCW at $40.00 each year. This is to increase the bank balance to enable us to begin funding a more robust level of activities to include Eagle Scout and Flag cer- tificate presentations, the Last Soldier in Berrien County ceremony (Grave Marker purchase), and other activities that could entail an expense. One thing I would like to see is for each camp brother to continue to research and find other Union ancestors and submit Supplemental War applicatitons for these ancestors. They are just as worthy of remem- bering and honoring as our initial Ancestor. It was interesting for me to research and identify two more Union soldiers in my lmited ancestry (I have English immigrant ancestors in the late 1890’s). Get Ready, Get Set, Start your digging! There was discussion in September of previous activities that earned some money for the Camp coffers. If anyone can remember Commander and pass along what those activities were, please do so.

  • Satin Army Corps System
    THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE ARMY CORPS SYSTEM IN THE UNION ARMY Allan Satin, Cincinnati Civil War Round Table, [email protected] © Allan Satin & Cincinnati Civil War Round Table, 2010, www.cincinnaticwrt.org At the end of the American Civil War, the Union Army was organized into army corps each with its own unique number which remained with it even if the corps was transferred from one army to another. How did this system develop in the Union Army? The United States Regular Army had no field commands larger than a regiment when the Civil War broke out in April 1861. Regiments were assigned to geographical departments with no intervening level of command. With the expansion of the armies resulting from the recruitment of the volunteer forces, command levels between the regimental and departmental levels were clearly required. At first, those departments with large enough field forces organized their new regiments into brigades (e.g. May 28 in the Department of Washington). As the forces became larger, divisions were formed (June 11 in the Department of Pennsylvania). The first major campaign was fought with armies organized into divisions (First Bull Run). Military men in the United States were familiar with the corps d’armée system as it had existed in the armies of Napoleon, but conservative commanders such as George B. McClellan and Don Carlos Buell were reluctant to form army corps in the armies under their command. McClellan wanted to postpone the creation of army corps until he had tested his divisional commanders through active operations to see which of them would be capable of commanding at the army corps level.

  • The Bandy Heritage Center for Northwest Georgia Atlanta Campaign Driving Tour from Tunnel Hill to Resaca
    1 The Bandy Heritage Center for Northwest Georgia Atlanta Campaign Driving Tour From Tunnel Hill to Resaca Overview After their humiliating defeat on the slopes of Lookout Mountain and Missionary Ridge on November 24-25, 1863, the dispirited forces of General Braxton Bragg’s Army of Tennessee fell back through Ringgold Gap to establish new lines, refresh, and refit in the vicinity of Dalton, Georgia. After losing the confidence of his troops and the loyalty of his subordinates, Bragg resigned his command and traveled to Richmond, Virginia, to serve as Confederate President Jefferson Davis’s military advisor. Davis then appointed General Joseph E. Johnston as the new commander of the Army of Tennessee. Despite Davis’s longstanding personal animosity toward Johnston as well as his doubts about the general’s military acumen and judgment, Davis hoped Johnston could salvage the Confederacy’s deteriorating situation in the Western Theater. Johnston arrived in Dalton in December 1863 and immediately established a strong defensive position in the mountainous terrain north and east of the town. He would eventually command a revitalized 50,000-man army organized into three army corps. Commanded by Lieutenant Generals William J. Hardee, John B. Hood, and Leonidas Polk, Polk’s corps, initially stationed at various points in defense of northern Alabama, would not fully unite with Johnston’s other forces until the action in Resaca. Meanwhile, significant changes had taken place within the Union command at Chattanooga. After the decisive victory at Missionary Ridge, General Ulysses S. Grant was summoned east to assume command of all Federal armies.
