  • Quantrill's First Skirmish As a Guerrilla
    Quantrill's First Skirmish as a Guerrilla When the Civil War started in April of 1861, Quantrill found himself escorting a wealthy Missouri farmer and his family to safety in Texas. Quickly heading north he readily enlisted as a private in the First Cherokee Mounted Regiment of Colonel Joel Bryan Mayes before transferring to Captain Stewart's Company B, in Colonel Jeremiah Vardeman Cockrell's Independent Home Guard of the 1st Brigade, 8th Division, Missouri State Guard, commanded by Brigadier Gen James Spencer Rains. He was soon promoted sergeant in Company I, of the Third Mo Cavalry. General Sterling Price finding himself unable to arm or supply his newly formed army ordered his mostly independent units to return to their home counties to wage partisan warfare. Winter was not far off, and Price realized that he would not be able to feed and supply his men in winter quarters. The situation was also affected by the short enlistment terms of most of Price’s soldiers. Many three-month enlistments had already expired. An alternative, which the general endorsed as a military necessity, was to establish groups of partisan rangers. Partisans protected their own land and provided for themselves. Organized independent ranger companies would keep Union forces in the state occupied and off balance. A fast, well-armed, mobile force existing off the land and supported by friends and family could do more damage to a Federal army of occupation than Price could by trying to maneuver a numerically superior adversary into set-piece battles. Price knew that his army required an intelligence network, and the guerrillas could set themselves up in every county and locale.

The Ghosts of Guerrilla Memory: How Civil War Bushwhackers Became Gunslingers in the American West. University of Georgia Press, $29.95 ISBN 9780820350028 Heroes from Another Land: Confederate Guerrillas and the making of the Wild West Few events in American history generate as much popular interest and stir up as many conflicting memories as the Civil War and the Wild West. Both produced battles, heroes, villains, victims, drama, and controversy that left lasting imprints on American culture. Dominant narratives abound in both. Civil War accounts center on the famous leaders and battles in Virginia, Tennessee, and Georgia and foster collective memories anchored on the Lost Cause, emancipation, and the restoration of the Union. In the West, the inexorable march of civilization—punctuated by tales of railroads, cattle, miners, bison, Indians, outlaws, gamblers, and lawmen—ushers in end of the frontier as a dynamic catalyst for the development of American values. In The Ghosts of Guerrilla Memory, Matthew C. Hulbert skillfully uses memoirs, contemporary histories, Hollywood movies, and numerous primary sources to take some of the key figures from one of the unruly fringes of the Civil War—the ugly partisan bloodletting in Missouri and Kansas—and link their collective memories to the legendary outlaw myths of the Wild West.

  • Bushwhacker Jayhawker Script FINAL
    Shared Stories of the Civil War Reader’s Theater Project Guerilla Warfare Bushwhackers and Jayhawkers The Border War and Civil War on the Kansas-Missouri border provided a stage for a war of words and a war of violence. As settlers from Missouri and New England came to the Kansas Territory, emotions ran high and tensions escalated as both factions fought to ensure Kansas entered the Union with a constitution favoring their cause. By 1856, violence had erupted along the Kansas-Missouri border and continued to rage through the Civil War years of 1861 through 1865. As both sides engaged in a physical fight, two new terms emerged to define – and to demonize – the guerilla warriors: “bushwhacker” and “jayhawker.” Please Note: Regional historians have reviewed the source materials used, the script, and the list of citations for accuracy. Guerilla Warfare Bushwhackers and Jayhawkers is part of the Shared Stories of the Civil War Reader’s Theater project, a partnership between the Freedom’s Frontier National Heritage Area and the Kansas Humanities Council. FFNHA is a partnership of 41 counties in eastern Kansas and western Missouri dedicated to connecting the stories of settlement, the Border War and the Enduring Struggle for Freedom in this area. KHC is a non-profit organization promoting understanding of the history and ideas that shape our lives and strengthen our sense of community.

FLUKER August 2015 Copyright Amy L. Fluker 2015 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT This project argues that Missouri’s singular position as a border state not only between the North and South, but also between the East and West shaped the state’s Civil War experience as well as its memory of the conflict. During the Civil War, Missouri was a slaveholding border state on the western frontier and home to a diverse and divided population. Neither wholly Union nor Confederate, Missouri’s Civil War was bitterly divisive. In its aftermath, Missourians struggled to come to terms with what it had been about.

  • Refugees and the Western Sanitary Commission During The
    A GLITTERING HOPE AT THE DARKEST TIME: REFUGEES AND THE WESTERN SANITARY COMMISSION DURING THE CIVIL WAR A THESIS IN History Presented to the faculty of the University of Missouri-Kansas City in partial fulfillment of the requirement of the degree MASTER OF ARTS by JISUNG LEE B.A., Dankook University, 2015 Kansas City, Missouri 2020 © 2020 JISUNG LEE ALL RIGHTS RESERVED A GLITTERING HOPE AT THE DARKEST TIME: REFUGEES AND THE WESTERN SANITARY COMMISSION DURING THE CIVIL WAR Jisung Lee, Candidate for Master of Arts Degree University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2020 ABSTRACT By 1864, refugees from the South and the Western Border flooded into St. Louis and adjacent towns in unprecedented numbers. This influx of destitute people required aid and relief organizations in Missouri to broaden their level of operations. As the largest charity society in the Western states, the Western Sanitary Commission (WSC) answered the call for help. However, many St. Louisians, who were divided by political ideology, were not favorable to its efforts to aid these refugees. This paper focuses on the Commission’s three activities to discover how it represented and defined itself amid the political conflict. First, the Western Sanitary Commission published a report of its work on behalf of White Southern refugees whose loyalty was doubtful. The Commission observers stressed in the report that those displaced were human beings and not only refugees but also soldiers’ families who deserved aid from the Union. The report was also a form of propaganda to ask iii for donations and support for the Commission’s work.

  • Trigger Events of the Civil War
    Trigger Events of the Civil War battlefields.org/learn/articles/trigger-events-civil-war December 19, 2008 The Civil War was the culmination of a series of confrontations concerning the institution of slavery. 1820 | The Missouri Compromise This 1856 map shows the line (outlined in red) established by the Missouri Compromise. (Library of Congress) In the growth years following the 1803 Louisiana Purchase, Congress was compelled to establish a policy to guide the expansion of slavery into the new western territory. Missouri’s application for statehood as a slave state sparked a bitter national debate. In addition to the deeper moral issue posed by the growth of slavery, the addition of pro-slavery Missouri legislators would give the pro-slavery faction a Congressional majority. Ultimately, Congress reached a series of agreements that became known as theMissouri Compromise. Missouri was admitted as a slave state and Maine was admitted as a free state, preserving the Congressional balance. A line was also drawn through the unincorporated western territories along the 36??30 parallel, dividing north and south as free and slave. Thomas Jefferson, upon hearing of this deal, “considered it at once as the knell of the Union. It is hushed indeed for the moment. But this is a reprieve only, not a final sentence. A geographical line, coinciding with a marked principle, moral and political, once conceived and held up to the angry passions of men, will never be obliterated; and every new irritation will mark it deeper and deeper.” 1831 | Nat Turner’s Rebellion 1/5 Nat Turner interpreted two solar eclipses as instructions from God to begin his rebellion.

  • American Civil War an Official History: the Kansas “Red Legs” As Missouri’S Dark Underbelly
    American Civil War an Official History: The Kansas “Red Legs” as Missouri’s Dark Underbelly Donald L. Gilmore The Kansas-Missouri Border 1861-1862: Guerrilla Warfare The passing of the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 was the beginning of constant political debates about the status of a number of new states of the Union, to be split into Proslavery or Free states as demanded by Congress. Slowly the arguments shifted into armed conflict before the Civil War, and became a guerrilla war in Missouri in 1861. In February 1861, Missouri had decided to remain in the Union, but Governor Jackson wanted to join the Confederacy (CSA), creating a split military, part Pro-Union, the rest pro-Confederate Missouri State Guard, now driven into the Southern part of the state. A number of fights between 1 regular units and pro-Southern ones in 1861/62 ended with the defeat of Confederate forces in parts of Missouri. The subject of terrorism - the use of extremely violent measures by adversarial groups or armies on the world stage against their more powerful enemies - dominates military-political discussions today, but in past struggles, dominant powers have often used terrorism themselves. One such conflict was the Union Army’s struggle against guerrillas in the Trans- Mississippi West during the Civil War, especially in Missouri. The problem of the border states was their status of being partially pro- Union and also pro-CSA or partially pro-slavery (Missouri, Kentucky and Mayland were slave-holding states but remained with the union). This necessitated abolitionists often living door to door with their pro-slavery opponents.
