An Abstract of “The Sinews of Memory:” The Forging of Civil War Memory and Reconciliation, 1865 – 1940 by Steven A. Bare Submitted to the Graduate Faculty as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctor of Philosophy Degree in History The University of Toledo December 2018 “The Sinews of Memory:’ The Forging of Civil War Memory and Reconciliation, 1865 – 1940,” explores the creation of historical memory of the American Civil War and, its byproduct, reconciliation. Stakeholders in the historical memory formation of the war and reconciliation were varied and many. “The Sinews of Memory” argues reconciliation blossomed from the 1880s well into the twentieth-century due to myriad of historical forces in the United States starting with the end of the war leading up to World War II. The crafters of the war’s memory and reconciliation – veterans, women’s groups, public history institutions, governmental agents, and civic boosters – arrived at a collective memory of the war predicated on notions of race, manliness, nationalism, and patriotism. -
Black Politics in the Age of Jim Crow Memphis, Tennessee, 1865 to 1954
Black Politics in the Age of Jim Crow Memphis, Tennessee, 1865 to 1954 Elizabeth Gritter A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2010 Approved by: Jacquelyn Dowd Hall W. Fitzhugh Brundage William R. Ferris Genna Rae McNeil Larry J. Griffin Copyright 2010 Elizabeth Gritter ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii Abstract ELIZABETH GRITTER: Black Politics in the Age of Jim Crow: Memphis, Tennessee, 1865 to 1954 (Under the direction of Jacquelyn Dowd Hall) Because the vast majority of black southerners were disenfranchised, most historians have ignored those who engaged in formal political activities from the late nineteenth century through the 1950s. This study is the first to focus on their efforts during this time. In contrast to narratives of the Jim Crow era that portray southern blacks as having little influence on electoral and party politics, this dissertation reveals that they had a significant impact. Using Memphis as a case study, it explores how black men and women maneuvered for political access and negotiated with white elites, especially with machine boss Edward H. Crump. It focuses in particular on Robert R. Church, Jr., who interacted with Crump, mobilized black Memphians, and emerged as the country’s most prominent black Republican in the 1920s. Church and other black Republicans carved out a space for themselves in party politics and opened up doors for blacks in the process. This study argues that formal black political mobilization constituted a major prong of the black freedom struggle during the Jim Crow era in the South. -

Huntsville, Alabama
“Civil War Experience for Groups” Huntsville, Alabama Sample Itinerary Although its location insulated the state from much of the major Civil War military activity, Alabama hosted the infant Confederate States of America and fueled the Southern military effort with its young men and critical iron industry. In North Alabama, visitors have the opportunity to experience battle sites as well as a different side of the war. In Huntsville, you can experience an occupied city, see many structures that survived because of the occupation, explore the importance of supply lines and railroads and learn of the Civil War experience through the eyes of the women and slaves. Day 1: Enjoy lunch at Main Street Café in Downtown Madison, AL , originally the city’s town hall and jail! The city was originally known as Madison Station and grew up in the 1850s around a stop of the Memphis & Charleston Railroad. Madison was the site of a battle in the Civil War on March 16, 1864, when Col. Josiah Patterson's 5th Alabama Cavalry, supported by Col. James H. Stuart's cavalry battalion and a section of horse artillery, drove Col. Adam G. Gorgas's 13th Illinois Infantry Regiment from the city. Patterson's men captured the 13th Illinois Regiment's wagon train, taking 66 prisoners. They also burned Union supplies and destroyed railroad tracks before retreating. Portions of the 5th Ohio Cavalry, the 59th Indiana Infantry and the 5th Iowa Infantry were sent in pursuit from Huntsville and skirmished with Patterson's rear guard that evening at Fletcher's Ferry south of Madison. -
Civil War Memories and “Pardnership Forgittin',” 1865
Civil War Memories and “Pardnership Forgittin’,” 1865-1913 James H. Madison* Author’s Note What I Didn’t See at Shiloh Musings on the Civil War At Shiloh I had an epiphany. It was a spring day in April 2000, and the rain was gentle, not coming in torrents as it had in April 1862. I walked around the Bloody Pond, looked over the Hornet’s Nest, and stood at the peach orchard. I tried, as tourists do at such sacred sites, to imagine what it had been like in that other April. I walked the cemetery rows and looked for Indiana’s dead. But the epiphany came as I read and photographed the Indiana regimental and unit monuments. Shiloh’s survivors had placed these massive limestone memory aids there decades after the battle. “Sermons in stone,” Shakespeare called such monuments. But what was the sermon those Hoosier veterans were preaching to me? What did they want me to remember about Shiloh, Gettysburg, Chickamauga, and all the other battles? And were there other sermons not carved in stone? What didn’t I see at Shiloh? The Civil War has been with me as long as I can recall. I grew up twenty miles from Gettysburg and attended college in that town during the years of the Civil War centennial. I confess to unchaperoned carousing on the battlefield as well as to more academic study of it. Not fully aware of the privilege at the time, I was fortunate to have met Bruce Catton and John Hope Franklin, historians who became models for an impressionable history major. -

Gordon Emslie Dean of the Graduate College ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to thank my advisor, Laura Belmonte, for her patience, guidance, and suggestions. Her knowledge of women’s history and her original ideas were invaluable. I also wish to thank the other members of my committee, Dr. Joseph Byrnes, Dr. James Huston, and Dr. Linda Leavell, for their patient reading and helpful suggestions. The History Department at Oklahoma State University provided me with the knowledge and the resources to complete this project. I also wish to extend my gratitude to the staffs at the Alabama State archives, the Schlesinger Library, the Lyndon Baines Johnson Library, and the archives at Tuskegee University. Nan Kemp at Amarillo College tirelessly interlibrary loaned material and found numerous bits of research for me. Most importantly, I want to express my extreme appreciation to my family. My mother not only proofread numerous drafts, but also assisted in research and research trips. Her help and her belief in me was priceless. -
Alabama Units
ALABAMA UNITS Not all of the Alabama men who rode with Forrest were in Alabama regi- ments. Many units, especially in the early months of the war, had companies assigned to them from several states. For example, Forrest’s original regiment was designated a Tennessee unit but had several Alabama companies serving in it. As the war continued, there was a trend to have regiments composed entirely of men from the same state, but even at the end of the war, battalions from dif- ferent states were often consolidated into a single regiment. This mixing of men from different states was especially prevalent when a unit was raised near a state line. In North Alabama, for example, many of the families had ties in Tennessee, and many Alabama men joined Tennessee regiments to serve with cousins. The Fourth Tennessee Cavalry had many men from North Alabama counties. It may strike some as surprising that so many Alabama regiments served under Forrest only briefly and at the end of the conflict. It should be remembered that Philip D. Roddey was the shield of the south bank of the Tennessee River and, therefore, the guard of North Mississippi. Thus, Roddey was aiding Forrest even though he was not usually under the command of Forrest. When the course of action swung in the right direction, Roddey was quick to turn over command of various units to Forrest. Roddey is a neglected character in the annals of the Civil War. His service was not dramatic, but it was valuable to the Confederate cause. Most of the men who served under Roddey experienced a dangerous but essentially boring war, and their only moments of glory came when circumstances demanded that they ride with Forrest. -
