    Post-Civil War Industrialization Following the Civil War, Tennessee Entered Into a Period of Industrialization

    Post-Civil War Industrialization Following the Civil War, Tennessee entered into a period of industrialization. This shift was due in part to the damage the war had inflicted on Tennessee’s economy. It was also due to investments from people outside of Tennessee. Many Northerners had been in Tennessee during the Civil War and saw opportunities for investing after the war was over. Northerners who moved South after the war to take advantage of business opportunities were called “carpetbaggers,” because many of the investors carried their belongings in satchels made from heavyweight, carpet-like fabric. Railroads were one of the first industries to be developed after the war. A number of important railroad lines ran through Tennessee before the war, but many of them had been either deliberately or accidentally damaged during the war. After the war, Tennessee’s railroads were repaired and new ones were built, and this expansion of railroads was a key factor in the growth of other industries, especially coal mining.1 Coal had been mined in the Cumberland Plateau region since before the Civil War. By the 1850s coal was replacing wood as the fuel of choice in homes and industries. As Tennessee’s railroads expanded after the war, the need for coal grew as well. Another factor that helped Tennessee’s coal mining industry evolve was the convict labor system.2 Though the 13th Amendment outlawed slavery, a clause in the amendment allowed people convicted of crimes, or convicts, to be forced to work during their prison term. Tennessee, like many other states, rented out convicts to mining companies and 1 “How They Worked.” Tennessee4me.

    After the Civil War, prisons in the South overflowed. Southern states enacted the "convict lease system" which turned prisoners from liabilities into assets by leasing them to work in mines, plantations, and railroads. There were only three ways out of the convict labor system: escape, self-mutilation, or death. In 1877, business owners and politicians started using convict laborers to replace striking mine workers to crush labor unrest. Prison and labor reform movements of the time saw no end in sight for this cruel institution. Then, free miners from Coal Creek found a solution by going to war with the State of Tennessee from 1891 to 1892. Tennessee ended its convict lease system and the rest of the South soon followed suit. Many of the miners who survived the Coal Creek War, died in mine disasters at Negotiations during the Coal Creek War the Fraterville Mine in 1902 and the Cross Mountain Mine in 1911. These disasters, which killed 300 men and boys in Coal Creek, helped raise public awareness of the dangers of mining. Safety reforms, brought about in response to these disasters and others, have helped save thousands of lives in mines throughout this country. Relive the history and explore the scenic mountains and streams of Coal Creek by traveling the new Motor Discovery Trail. The trail is free, provided by efforts of the Boy Scouts of America, the American Society of Civil Engineers, Trout Unlimited, the Coal Creek Watershed Foundation, local residents, and students. This trail is dedicated to those miners who lived and died in Coal Creek to improve the quality of life today.

  • Uncle Dave Macon Biography

    Uncle Dave Macon Biography

    Uncle Dave Macon Biography http://www.cmt.com/artists/az/macon_uncle_dave/bio.jhtml Uncle Dave Macon, beginning his professional musical career after the age of 50, brought musical and performance traditions of the 19th-century South to the radio shows and the recording catalogues of the early country music industry. In 1925, he became one of two charter members of the Grand Ole Opry, then called the WSM Barn Dance. A consummate showman on the banjo and a one-man repository of countless old songs and comic routines, Macon remained a well-loved icon of country music until and beyond his death in 1952. Born David Harrison Macon in Smartt Station in middle Tennessee's Warren County, he was the son of a Confederate officer who owned a large farm. Macon heard the folk music of the area when he was young, but he was also a product of the urban South: after the family moved to Nashville and began operating a hotel, Macon hobnobbed with traveling vaudeville musicians who performed there. After his father was stabbed near the hotel, Macon left Nashville with the rest of his family. He worked on a farm and later operated a wagon freight line, performing music only at local parties and dances. Macon's turn toward a musical second career was due partly to the advent of motorized trucks, for his wagon line fell on hard times in the early '20s after a competitor invested in the horseless novelties. In 1923, he struck up a few tunes in a Nashville barbershop with fiddler Sid Harkreader, and an agent from the Loew's theater chain happened to stop in.
