  • 1 Violence and Deception: the Outlaw Career of Ben Bickerstaff by Carol
    Violence and Deception: The Outlaw Career of Ben Bickerstaff By Carol Coley Taylor In a world gone awry with revolutions, natural disasters, and assassins making the nightly news on a regular basis, it is fitting to recall another desperate time in Northeast Texas when Confederate soldiers and guerillas returning from Civil War with no intention of acknowledging defeat or becoming reconstructed created an environment of hate, destruction and terror for all former slaves and Union supporters. As early as March 7, 1865 the Galveston Daily News reported that Clarksville was said to be infested by roving bands of guerillas plundering the county and its people. By August 10 of the same year the Daily News reported that newspapers all over Texas were commenting on the “rapid increase of crime, with accounts of robberies, murders, and lately, wholesale arson. Men of all grades seem to have entered on the career of crime and doubtless find it profitable since they commit their deeds without impunity.” In 1866 Judge Albert H. Latimer of Red River County wrote “that never in the days of slavery has there ever been known the wrong, the outrage, the oppression that now exists in all the Northeastern counties of Texas towards the poor Negroes. More downtrodden and brutally treated, blacks have no rights whatever that are respected.” The same conditions prevailed in Bowie, Fannin, Lamar and other surrounding counties. Traveling through twenty-nine counties in eastern and northeastern Texas, Freedman’s Bureau inspector William H. Sinclair reported that for the Union man and the freed people of northern Texas life was pandemonium itself.

  • Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Cullen Montgomery Baker Reconstruction Desperado by Barry A
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Cullen Montgomery Baker Reconstruction Desperado by Barry A. Crouch Cullen Montgomery Baker, Reconstruction Desperado by Barry A. Crouch, Donaly E. Brice. In this engrossing biography, Barry A. Crouch and Donaly E. Brice sift through local folklore, legend, and fact to provide an accurate account of this southern desperado, whose exploits, if more widely publicized, "would (make) Jesse James and all the gunmen of pioneer days pale into insignificance", according to one promoter of the Baker legend. Nicknamed "Swamp Fox of the Sulphur", Baker has intrigued writers for more than one hundred years and was immortalized in The First Fast Draw, an early Louis L'Amour western. A disillusioned former Confederate soldier, Baker gained fleeting national notoriety promoting a defeated dream in the occupied South. Sharing many white southerners' resentment toward the North, he took to murdering individuals who cooperated with the South's reconstruction. His actions encouraged the rise of outlaw bands and indirectly assisted in the formation of the Ku Klux Klan. Encouraged and led by men like Baker, the violent gangs brutalized Union agents and freedmen. Local cooperation in concealing and aiding the outlaws made it difficult for police forces, politicians, and news agencies to gather reliable information on the "New Rebellion", as it was called by the New York Tribune in 1869. Numerous problems, fromthe powerlessness of the civil authorities to the insufficient numbers of the military, continued to weaken the Reconstruction government. Baker and his ilk, in effect, incited a second civil war. Cullen Montgomery Baker, Reconstruction Desperado is essential to understanding how deeply class and race divided the South during the Reconstruction era.

  • Racial Violence and Ku Klux Klan Terror in Post-Civil War Texas, 1865-1877
    THE LONE STAR CONSPIRACY: RACIAL VIOLENCE AND KU KLUX KLAN TERROR IN POST-CIVIL WAR TEXAS, 1865-1877 By BARBARA LEAH CLAYTON # Bachelor of Arts Oklahoma State University Stillwater, Oklahoma 1979 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS July, 1986 I""T \..t- 'S. ·, $ ~bt~.e 0(>·2.... THE LONE STAR CONSPIRACY: RACIAL VIOLENCE AND KU KLUX KLAN TERROR IN POST-CIVIL WAR TEXAS, 1865-1877 Thesis Approved: Dean of the Graduate College ii 125!.J841 PREFACE Texas experienced relative peace within its boundaries during the Civil War. Once the war ended, with General Robert E. Lee•s surrender to General Ulysses S. Grant at Appomattox Court House, for the Lone Star State the real war began. Racial tensions, experienced during the great conflict between the Blue and the Grey, emerged with renewed vigor. Vehemently, the same angry forces which had preyed on their enemies, either real or imaginary, struck again. Prior to 1865 whites targeted European and Mexican immigrants and Unionists for violence. Those same whites had kept black slaves in check despite emancipation. After 1865 Anglos transferred their hatred and aggression to all who were not ex-Confederates, white Southern Democrats, or "true" Texans. Presidential Reconstruction established a provisional government (June 19, 1865) and military occupation (August 20, 1866) for the Lone Star State. Federal officials forced Anglos in Texas to accept full and immediate freedom for blacks instead of gradual and limited emancipation, which most white Southerners favored.

  • An Analysis of the Freedmen's Bureau Subassistant Commissioners In
    A STRANGER AMONGST STRANGERS: AN ANALYSIS OF THE FREEDMEN’S BUREAU SUBASSISTANT COMMISSIONERS IN TEXAS, 1865-1868 Christopher B. Bean, B.A., M.S. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2008 APPROVED: Richard G. Lowe, Major Professor Randolph B. Campbell, Committee Member Richard B. McCaslin, Committee Member Melodie Kelly, Committee Member Arian R. Lewis, Committee Member and Chair of the Department of History Sandra L. Terrell, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Bean, Christopher B. A Stranger Amongst Strangers: An Analysis of the Freedmen’s Bureau Subassistant Commissioners in Texas, 1865-1868. Doctor of Philosophy (History), August 2008, 476 pp., 5 maps, bibliography, 372 titles. This dissertation is a study of the subassistant commissioners of the Freedmen’s Bureau in Texas from late 1865 to late 1868. Its focus is two-fold. It first examines who these men were. Were they northern born or southern? Did they own slaves? Were these men rich, poor, or from the middle-class? Did they have military experience or were they civilians? How old was the average subassistant commissioner in Texas? This work will answer what man Freedmen’s Bureau officials deemed qualified to transition the former slave from bondage to freedom. Secondly, in conjunction with these questions, this work will examine the day-to-day operations of the Bureau agents in Texas, chronicling those aspects endemic to all agents as well as those unique to certain subdistricts. The demand of being a Bureau agent was immense, requiring long hours in the office fielding questions and long hours in the saddle inspecting subdistricts.

In 1966, the work was reprinted by Pemberton Press with a more expansive title and a fifth supplemental volume that included 276 letters from the Executive Department. The present version is a facsimile of the 1966 edition, now long out of print and considered rare. With this very affordable reissue, Texas State Historical Association furthers the aim of the state archivists to make the sources widely available while protecting the delicate originals.

  • Tombstone by Tombstone
    Tombstone by Tombstone Cullen Montgomery Baker T he period immediately following the Civil War, known as Recon- struction, produced some of the blackest pages in the history of our nation. The era lasted from the end of the war in 1865 through 1877. The radical Republicans in Washington gained control of the Federal Government and assigned the US Army, Union civilians and freed slaves, known as Freed- men to control all the southern states. This caused a violent uprising among many whites and led to the formation of such groups as the Ku Klux Klan and to some of the bloodiest killers in Old West history, such as Wild Bill Longley and John Wesley Hardin. Some folks even call this the beginning of the Old West. One of the most prolific killers to arise out of this era was the former Confederate soldier Cullen Montgomery Baker. He was born on June 23, 1835 (or ’36 or ’37) in Weakley County, Tennessee. He was the second born and only son of John Baker and his first wife (Elizabeth?). When Cullen was four years old the family moved to Texas and his mother died within about four years of the move. Very little is known of the family of Cullen’s parents and many of the writers have confused his mother and step-mother. There would be four more children with the step-mother. Baker led a tumultuous childhood and began to drink early and way too much, even for those days. In 1853, he and his brother-in-law Matthew Powell were drinking in one of the local establishments when Baker got into a fight.
