  • Tennessee Civil War Trails Program 213 Newly Interpreted Marker
    Tennessee Civil War Trails Program 213 Newly Interpreted Markers Installed as of 6/9/11 Note: Some sites include multiple markers. BENTON COUNTY Fighting on the Tennessee River: located at Birdsong Marina, 225 Marina Rd., Hwy 191 N., Camden, TN 38327. During the Civil War, several engagements occurred along the strategically important Tennessee River within about five miles of here. In each case, cavalrymen engaged naval forces. On April 26, 1863, near the mouth of the Duck River east of here, Confederate Maj. Robert M. White’s 6th Texas Rangers and its four-gun battery attacked a Union flotilla from the riverbank. The gunboats Autocrat, Diana, and Adams and several transports came under heavy fire. When the vessels drove the Confederate cannons out of range with small-arms and artillery fire, Union Gen. Alfred W. Ellet ordered the gunboats to land their forces; signalmen on the exposed decks “wig-wagged” the orders with flags. BLOUNT COUNTY Maryville During the Civil War: located at 301 McGee Street, Maryville, TN 37801. During the antebellum period, Blount County supported abolitionism. In 1822, local Quakers and other residents formed an abolitionist society, and in the decades following, local clergymen preached against the evils of slavery. When the county considered secession in 1861, residents voted to remain with the Union, 1,766 to 414. Fighting directly touched Maryville, the county seat, in August 1864. Confederate Gen. Joseph Wheeler’s cavalrymen attacked a small detachment of the 2nd Tennessee Infantry (U.S.) under Lt. James M. Dorton at the courthouse. The Underground Railroad: located at 503 West Hill Ave., Friendsville, TN 37737.

  • Lew Wallace, an Autobiography (1906)
    The Library of America • Story of the Week Reprinted from The Civil War: The Second Year Told by Those Who Lived It (The Library of America, 2012), pages 35–46. Copyright © 2011 Literary Classics of the U.S., Inc. From Lew Wallace, An Autobiography (1906). attack on fort donelson: tennessee, february 1862 Lew Wallace: from An Autobiography It was in the western theater that the Union war machine finally moved. In September 1861 Brigadier General Ulysses S. Grant took command of the Union forces at Cairo, Illinois, at the junction of the Mississippi and Ohio. During the winter he and Flag Officer Andrew H. Foote, commanding the gunboat flotilla based at Cairo, made plans to gain control of the Tennessee and Cumberland rivers, which led into the heart of the Confederacy. Early in February Grant opened the campaign, his targets Forts Henry and Donelson, guarding the two rivers just below the Kentucky-Tennessee border. On February 6 Flag Officer Foote’s gunboats bombarded Fort Henry, on the Ten- nessee, into surrender. Fort Donelson, on the Cumberland, proved a harder nut to crack. On February 15 the Confederates punched a hole in Grant’s investing lines. Union division commander Wallace, author of the celebrated novel Ben-Hur, described the fighting in his 1906 autobiography. I had long since learned that proud men in the throes of ill- fortune dislike to have the idle and curious make spectacles of them; especially do they hate condolence; wherefore I refrained from going to take a look at the first division reorganizing in my rear.

  • A Struggle for Respect Lew Wallace’S Relationships with Ulysses S
    A Struggle for Respect Lew Wallace’s Relationships with Ulysses S. Grant and William Tecumseh Sherman After Shiloh WILLIAM M. FERRARO ew Wallace, born on April 10, 1827, in Brookville, Indiana, aspired Lto greatness. Given a better than average start socially, politically, and economically, Wallace went on to achieve fame as a soldier, govern- ment official, and author before his death in 1905. Of the many relation- ships with other prominent Americans that he enjoyed over this long and active life, none proved more complex or troubling than those Wallace maintained with two of the best-known public figures of the nineteenth century: Ulysses S. Grant and William Tecumseh Sherman. The purpose of this article is to examine why Wallace continued to turn to these men for advice and assistance in the weeks and years after April _________________________ William M. Ferraro is an assistant professor and assistant editor with the Papers of George Washington at the University of Virginia. He has a long-standing interest in the lives and rela- tionships of John and William Tecumseh Sherman, and his current book project studies the extended Sherman family during the Civil War. He wishes to thank the Indiana Magazine of History’s anonymous reviewer and staff members Eric Sandweiss and Cynthia Gwynne Yaudes for helping to focus and strengthen this article. He also thanks the Interlibrary Loan Department of the Alderman Library at the University of Virginia for facilitating the procure- ment of the Lew Wallace papers on microfilm, and Cinnamon Catlin-Legutko for inviting him to participate in the 2005 Lew Wallace Symposium.

  • 81.1963.1 Maj. Gen. Ambrose E. Burnside 1824-1881 Union County Marker Text Review Report 09/03/2014
    81.1963.1 Maj. Gen. Ambrose E. Burnside 1824-1881 Union County Marker Text Review Report 09/03/2014 Marker Text Born in Liberty, Indiana, Ambrose E. Burnside invented the breech-loading rifle in 1856. Commanded a brigade at First Bull Run and the Army of the Potomac at Fredericksburg. He was commander of the Army of Ohio when Morgan's Raiders were captured. Report This marker was placed under review because its file lacked both primary and secondary documentation. IHB researchers were able to locate primary sources to support the claims made by the marker except for the phrase “Army of the Ohio” to describe the men he commanded when Morgan’s Raiders were captured. The following report expands on the marker points and addresses various omissions, including Burnside’s war-time order suppressing various newspapers and orators and his service as governor and senator from Rhode Island. Ambrose E. Burnside was born in Liberty, Indiana on May 23, 1824.1 He attended West Point Military Academy from 1843-1847 and graduated eighteenth in his class of thirty-eight.2 Burnside, who had been conferred the rank of second lieutenant upon his graduation in the spring of 1847, joined his unit, Company C of the 3rd U.S. Artillery, in Mexico City just after the official battles of the Mexican War had ended. He remained in the Mexican capital until the peace treaty was signed in the spring of 1848 and was then transferred to Fort Adams in Rhode Island. A year later, he returned to Company C, 3rd U.S.
