NEWS AND*********************NOTES ON OTHER PUBLICATIONS PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY,Mrs. Eleanor Watson, Editor, P.O.Box 819, Bowie, Md. 20715, Monthly, Society Membership $5.00; subscription $2.00. March 1971: Mr. George Ely Russell's list of springboard ancestors for patriotic lineage societies fails to mention two of equal importance. Mr. Russell needs to be informed that the United Daughters and Sons of the Confederacy and the James­ town Society are patriotic organizations on a par with his chosen Mayflower Descendants and Union Soldiers in the Rebellion of 1861-65. Many Southerners will challenge his list as being either so biased that he cannot recognize the service of our ancestors or he is so indifferent to them that he failed to mention them.

  • 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.
