    Confederate Scrapbooks 1857-1930 [Early 1900s] Extent: 3 items Accession Number: 2002.183 Abstract: Two scrapbooks and one printed address memorializing the Confederate States of America, and containing primarily newspaper clippings, currency, poetry, written tributes and memorials, and photographic images. Address is a tribute to General Robert E. Lee by Honorable Harry B. Hawes of Missouri. Processed by: Jason Phinney, October, 2009 Repository: Special Collections and Archives, Southeast Missouri State University Phone: (573) 651-2245; Fax: (573) 651-2666; Email: [email protected] Provenance: Unknown, but based on evidence in the scrapbooks, it was possibly compiled by Bettie Head Beazley. Citation: Confederate Civil War Scrapbooks, Special Collections and Archives, Southeast Missouri State University Restrictions: Due to the fragility of the scrapbooks, patrons are limited to using the photocopies of the originals. Other Relevant Collections: United Daughters of the Confederacy Scrapbook, 1861-1952. 2001.071. Historical Note These scrapbooks were probably compiled to commemorate the Civil War from the Confederate point of view. Scrapbooks were one of several ways used to commemorate the Civil War. Commemoration began in the years immediately following the war and still exists today. A major method of commemoration is monuments of both citizen-soldiers and officers. This method actually began during the war. Commemoration speeches were also common, like the one by Harry B. Hawes included in the collection. They were of major figures or battles of the war. Another major way of commemoration is through motion pictures such as “Gettysburg” and “Glory” (about the 54th Massachusetts Colored Regiment). Today, major battles are commemorated through reenactments of the battles.

  • 78 Kansas History Price’S Raid and the Battle of Mine Creek
    Confederate General Sterling Price (1809–1867) of Chariton County, Missouri. Kansas History: A Journal of the Central Plains 37 (Summer 2014): 78–99 78 Kansas History Price’s Raid and the Battle of Mine Creek by Edgar Langsdorf ilson’s Creek was the first great battle of the war west of the Mississippi, and Mine Creek the last,” concluded historian Albert Castel in his 1968 biography of Confederate General Sterling Price. “Between these events is the story of a lost cause. After Mine Creek came limbo.” With this fascinating conclusion in mind, it seemed wrong to “Wallow the Kansas battle’s 150th anniversary year to pass without recognition. Thus, “Price’s Raid and the Battle of Mine Creek,” which was first published in the autumn 1964 issue of the Kansas Historical Quarterly to mark the centennial of that seminal event in Kansas Civil War history, is republished here in its entirety to commemorate the raid’s sesquicentennial. After fifty years Edgar Langsdorf’s fine study remains an important and interesting contribution to the history of the only Civil War battle between regular Union and Confederate troops fought on Kansas soil. It has been edited for style only, so that it might more closely reflect our twenty-first-century usage, and the editors have added a few clarifying comments and additional secondary source citations to the footnotes to reflect more recent additions to the scholarship. In the spring and summer of 1864, when the Civil War was entering its fourth year, the situation of the Union armies was grim. In the east, they had suffered terrible losses in the battles of the Wilderness (May 5 and 6), Spotsylvania (May 12), and Cold Harbor (June 3), while west of the Mississippi campaigns in Louisiana, Texas, and Arkansas had ended disastrously, allowing the Southern forces to assume the offensive.

PREFACE To Abraham Lincoln, the Civil War was essentially a people's contest over the maintenance of a government dedi- cated to the elevation of man and the right of every citizen to an unfettered start in the race of life. President Lincoln believed that most Americans understood this, for he liked to boast that while large numbers of Army and Navy officers had resigned their commissions to take up arms against the government, not one common soldier or sailor was known to have deserted his post to fight for the Confederacy.

  • TERRITORIAL NEW MEXICO GENERAL STEPHEN H. KEARNY at the Outbreak of the Mexican War General Stephen H
    TERRITORIAL NEW MEXICO GENERAL STEPHEN H. KEARNY At the outbreak of the Mexican War General Stephen H. Kearny was made commander of the Army of the West by President Polk and ordered to lead a 1700 man expeditionary force from Fort Leavenworth, Kansas to occupy New Mexico and California. He quickly accomplished the bloodless conquest of New Mexico on 19 August 1846, ending the brief period of Mexican control over the territory. After spending a little more than a month in Santa Fe as military governor with headquarters in Santa Fe, Kearny decided to continue on to California after ensuring that a civilian government was in place. Early the following year in Kearny's absence New Mexicans mounted their only challenge to American control. In January, 1847, Kearny's appointed Governor, Thomas H. Benton and six others were murdered in Taos. Colonel Sterling Price moved immediately to quash the insurrection. Price led a modest force of 353 men along with four howitzers out of Albuquerque, adding to the size of his force as he marched north up the Rio Grande by absorbing smaller American units into his command. After a series of small engagements, reaching Taos Pueblo on 3 February Price found the insurgents dug in. Over the next two days Price's force shelled the town and surrounded it in an attempt to force surrender. When American artillery finally breached the walls of the, the battle quickly turned into a running fight with American forces chasing down their opponents who attempted to find shelter in the mountains. In all, perhaps as many as one hundred guerillas were killed, while Price suffered the loss of seven men killed and forty-five wounded.

  • Jefferson City in the Civil War Missouri Was a Divided State in the Civil War
    To: Leaders of the City of Jefferson and Interested Citizens From: Jay Barnes Re: The Marker on Moreau Drive Date: August 20, 2020 Jefferson City in the Civil War Missouri was a divided state in the Civil War. But Jefferson City was different. From near the very beginning to finish, it was a Union town – occupied and controlled by the Union Army with support from a large group recent anti-slavery, pro-union immigrants from Germany. Of course, things were not simple. Our community was Union enough that the Union Army could take control without a fight – indeed Harper’s Weekly wrote about a warm welcome by local residents. But there were enough Confederate sympathizers in the area that Union commanders were worried the entire time they were here about the potential for an uprising. Historian Gary Kremer tells stories of the Civil War in Jefferson City in his essay “We Are Living in Very Stirring Times.”1 On April 26, 1861 – just two weeks after Fort Sumter, German immigrant Henrietta Bruns (wife of Bernard Bruns) wrote relatives in Germany that, from her vantage point on High Street directly across from the State Capitol, she could see “a tremendously large secessionist flag that has been flying,” while “in ironic contrast, a German immigrant church not far from her home proudly displayed the stars and stripes of the Union, which its congregation was pledged to uphold.”2 In January of 1861, incoming Missouri Governor Claiborne Fox Jackson declared that Missouri had a common interest with other slave states and should side with the South in a potential conflict.

  • Battle of Lexington, Missouri
    Battle of Lexington, Missouri http://civilwar150.longwood.edu In the latter part of September 1861, Union and Confederate forces continued to struggle for control over the Border State of Missouri, while military operations in Virginia foreshadowed the vital role that state would play in the upcoming conflict. On August 10, 1861, Federals and Confederates had fought in the bloody battle of Wilson’s Creek, which had left the Union commander Nathaniel Lyon dead and nearly 25% of his force killed, wounded, or missing. Following the battle, the southern forces did not immediately pursue the retreating Federals, but General Sterling Price would eventually lead his pro-Confederate Missouri State Guard into the northwest portion of the state, in an attempt to regain control of that region. Price’s advance culminated in the battle of Lexington on September 13-20. When Price began his northward movement, Federal forces in Missouri under General John C. Fremont were unsure of the rebel objective. Colonel James Mulligan commanded a force of about 3,500 men that defended the town of Lexington in Lafayette County, which turned out to be Price’s target. Mulligan focused his defense around the buildings of the town’s Masonic College. Fremont sent reinforcements to Lexington, but they were attacked by Confederate troops and forced to retreat. Price’s force reached Lexington on September 11, and two days later the two sides skirmished amongst the tombstones of an outlying cemetery. Price delayed making another assault, waiting for all of his troops to arrive and using his artillery to soften the Federal defenses.
