Please see the Manuscript desk with any questions or requests. 5 Historical Sketch of the Tennessee National Guard The official military history of the State of Tennessee dates back to June 1, 1796, when President George Washington signed the Act of Congress admitting Tennessee as the sixteenth State of the Union. But the actual military history of “The Volunteer State” dates back to territorial days and the Revolutionary War. The first recorded “call for volunteers” in Tennessee history is found in the records of Colonel John Sevier, Washington County, Tennessee Territory, on March 19, 1780. He wanted “100 good men.” Two hundred answered. In 1803, by Act of the Tennessee Legislature, the Militia of Tennessee was reorganized, and the Militia of Washington County became known as the “First Tennessee Regiment.” In 1812, the “First Tennessee,” under command of Colonel William Hall, was sworn into Federal service on December 10, on orders of General Andrew Jackson, and took part in the expedition to Natchez. In 1813, the First Tennessee Infantry was called into service by Brigade Order issued by General Issac Roberts, and mobilized at Fayetteville, Tennessee, and mustered into Federal service on September 26, participating in the following battles: Talladego, Enotochopoo, Tohopeka and the Battle of New Orleans. The regiment was mustered out of Federal service May 13, 1815. In 1818, the First Tennessee Infantry reported at Fayetteville, Tennessee under command of Colonel R. H. Dyer, and participated in numerous engagements during the Seminole War. In 1836, the First Tennessee participated in the Second Seminole War and the Cherokee War, under command of Colonel A. M. Bradford. In June, the same year, the regiment assembled at Fayetteville, and on October 13, a battle was fought on the Withlacoochee, and another battle, on November 13, near the same place. There were also battles in the Wahoo Swamp on November 18 and 21. It was not until the declaration of the War with Mexico in 1846 that the term “Volunteer State” became the by-word for Tennessee. A Tennessean, James K. Polk, was President. Congress issued an immediate call for 50,000 volunteers. The Tennessee quota was 2,600 but 30,000 responded. All could not be accepted. Local balloting was resorted to in order to determine which of the original volunteers would be accepted. The “campaigning” for this privilege was sharply and seriously conducted among individuals as a race for high political office. In 1814 when General Andrew Jackson was ready to march to New Orleans to fight the British under Lord Packenham, opportunities to enlist were so eagerly sought that the men paid bonuses for the privilege of volunteer service. By an act of the 45th General Assembly in 1887, the Tennessee State Guards were reorganized, and the First Regiment became known as the First Regiment of Infantry, Tennessee National Guard.

  • State Press Release3
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: LTC Chris Messina Dec. 22, 2020 OFFICE: 615.313.0662 20-42 [email protected] Tennessee State Guard Receiving New Commander NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Maj. Gen. Jeff Holmes, Tennessee’s Adjutant General, announced today that Brig. Gen. (Tenn.) Juan R. Santiago, from Memphis, is to become the new commander of the Tennessee State Guard. “Gen. Santiago is a committed Soldier and volunteer,” said Holmes. “He is a talented leader and I am looking forward to what he will bring to his new role in the State Guard.” For more than 30 years, Santiago has served in the military as a member of the U.S. Air Force, U.S. Air Force Reserves, or the Tennessee State Guard. He is a veteran of Desert Storm and served as an Information Technology (Cyber) Officer for the Air Force. As a volunteer in the Tennessee State Guard, Santiago served in multiple leadership positions including Regimental Commander, Chief of Staff, and Deputy Commanding General for Operations. He is also the Executive Director of the State Guard Association of the United States. Santiago is scheduled to assume command from Brig. Gen. (Tenn.) Craig Johnson, who has been the commander of the State Guard since August 2016, in an official ceremony in February 2021. “Johnson has done a fantastic job for more than four-and-a-half years,” said Holmes. “It is a great loss to our State but his retirement is well deserved after spending more than 35 years in uniform.” The Tennessee State Guard is the all-volunteer arm of the Tennessee Military Department headquartered in Nashville.

  • 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.

    Countdown to December 1, 2019 “On this Day in History” for Johnson City, Tennessee’s Sesquicentennial December On December 1, 1869, Johnson City “received its first charter from the state of Tennessee under the name of Johnson City.” (Source: Greater Johnson City A Pictorial History.) On December 1, 1966, Johnson City native Steve Spurrier won the Heisman Trophy. (Source: “Glimpses of Johnson City, Tennessee,” Community Relations Department, City of Johnson City, Tennessee.) On December 2, 1978, the Statler Brothers appeared with Barbara Mandrel at Freedom Hall. Tickets ranged in price from $5.50 to $7.50. (Source: www.vincestaten.blogspot.com) Between December 3, 4, and 5, 1886, three feet of snow fell in Johnson City. “Activity ground to a halt for days.” (Source: I’d Rather Have a Talking Frog.)

On December 4, 1984, an article in the Johnson City Press-Chronicle reported that recently, a day’s tobacco sales at Big Burley, Grower’s Co-Op, and Young’s Warehouse brought tobacco growers more than $1 million.

  • Coal-Creek-Historical-Brochure-For
    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.
