  • Tennessee Civil War Trails Program 213 Newly Interpreted Marker
    Tennessee Civil War Trails Program 213 Newly Interpreted Markers Installed as of 6/9/11 Note: Some sites include multiple markers. BENTON COUNTY Fighting on the Tennessee River: located at Birdsong Marina, 225 Marina Rd., Hwy 191 N., Camden, TN 38327. During the Civil War, several engagements occurred along the strategically important Tennessee River within about five miles of here. In each case, cavalrymen engaged naval forces. On April 26, 1863, near the mouth of the Duck River east of here, Confederate Maj. Robert M. White’s 6th Texas Rangers and its four-gun battery attacked a Union flotilla from the riverbank. The gunboats Autocrat, Diana, and Adams and several transports came under heavy fire. When the vessels drove the Confederate cannons out of range with small-arms and artillery fire, Union Gen. Alfred W. Ellet ordered the gunboats to land their forces; signalmen on the exposed decks “wig-wagged” the orders with flags. BLOUNT COUNTY Maryville During the Civil War: located at 301 McGee Street, Maryville, TN 37801. During the antebellum period, Blount County supported abolitionism. In 1822, local Quakers and other residents formed an abolitionist society, and in the decades following, local clergymen preached against the evils of slavery. When the county considered secession in 1861, residents voted to remain with the Union, 1,766 to 414. Fighting directly touched Maryville, the county seat, in August 1864. Confederate Gen. Joseph Wheeler’s cavalrymen attacked a small detachment of the 2nd Tennessee Infantry (U.S.) under Lt. James M. Dorton at the courthouse. The Underground Railroad: located at 503 West Hill Ave., Friendsville, TN 37737.

    Brothers of the Spade Correspondence of Peter Collinson^ of London^ and of John Custis y of ff^illiamsburs, Virginia, 1734-1746' BY E. G. SWEM N editing the letters of Peter CoUinson of London, and I of John Custis of Williamsburg, 1734-1746, I shall not attempt an exhaustive study either of CoUinson, inde- fatigable promoter of botany and horticulture in England, or of Custis, wealthy, eccentric and somewhat misunder- stood Virginia planter. I am presenting a biographical sketch of each; in that of CoUinson caUing attention to a few high lights of his career so that it will be evident how the letters to John Custis merge into his general purpose of advancing a love for plant life, and of arousing a desire for the improvement of gardens in England; and how that pur- pose was accomplished by the importation of seeds from all regions of the world, but principally from North America, and by the generous dissemination of advice about their propagation; in the course of the sketch and the notes accompanying it, I shall take the liberty to point out some defects in preceding contributions on CoUinson, and refer to the newer literature that has arisen since the publication of the Life of Peter CoUinson^ by N.

    JOINT LEGISLATIVE AUDIT AND REVIEW COMMISSION of the Virginia General Assembly SPECIAL REPORT: Preservation of Revolutionary War Veteran Gravesites Members of the Joint Legislative Audit and Review Commission Chairman Delegate Vincent F. Callahan, Jr. Vice-Chairman Senator Kevin G. Miller Senator Charles J. Colgan Delegate M. Kirkland Cox Delegate V. Earl Dickinson Senator J. Randy Forbes Delegate Frank D. Hargrove, Sr. Delegate Dwight C. Jones Senator Thomas K. Norment, Jr. Delegate Harry J. Parrish Delegate Lacey E. Putney Delegate John A. Rollison III Delegate John H. Rust, Jr. Senator Walter A. Stosch Mr. Walter J. Kucharski, Auditor of Public Accounts Director Philip A. Leone COPYRIGHT 2000, COMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA Preface House Joint Resolution No. 530 and Senate Joint Resolution No. 345 from the 1999 Session directed a JLARC review of issues related to the care and maintenance of burial sites of Revolutionary War veterans. Virginia currently has a program to help provide for the care and maintenance of Confederate veteran gravesites, but has no similar program for veterans of the American Revolution. This final report provides a listing of Revolutionary War veteran burials that updates a list printed in the interim report for this study. The final report also contains recommendations and funding options for a program to provide care for these burial sites. JLARC staff estimate that there are about 560 cemetery sites and 705 grave markers that are potentially eligible for participation in a maintenance program re- ceiving State support. Some of the sites already receive certain maintenance care, so State assistance would serve to either help defray some of the current expenditures made by caretakers, or help them provide a higher level of maintenance care.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy o f the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of die original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.Tha sign or "?c.,§€t" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Mining Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. Youa will find good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. I t is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.
