Here's about a 2 foot tall war log from the Blue Springs community of NE Tenn. This log contains one "large sized" cannister ball directly in the center of the log....the same size cannister Burnside's Corps used at Blue Springs. The log has also been hit by 2 other 0.69 caliber round balls....the CS troops did use some 0.69 caliber round balls during this battle. The log still has shag bark hickory bark on it.....there are a lot of hickory trees all over NE Tenn, including Blue Springs. When you have this log "in hand" you can see where the once live tree tried to grow over or heal it wounds inflicted by all this flying metal. Truely a one of a kind relic.

Foot bridge across Rhea Springs in the morning light. The battle at Shiloh began very close to this spot. Confederate dead were "lumped" in a mass grave just to the left of this bridge. Such a tranquil scene.....it was hard to image this places past. | ||
 |
The bloody pond at Shiloh. One of my favorite places on planet earth to be on a crisp March morning. A very short walk thru the tree line & you will find yourself at the Peach Orchard. Both are a MUST see...put this destination on your bucket list. | ||
 |
The Peach Orchard. In 1862 this was the bloodiest piece of real estate in the Western Hemisphere. I am most hesitant to to compiment any branch of the US government.....any adminstration.....but my hats off to the US Park Service at Shiloh. The only thing that could have made this trip any better is if the peach trees would have been in bloom. Shiloh battlefield is located in the exact right location.....in the middle of no where.....there is NOT a strip mall for 20 miles. Here they have to build split rail fences around the peach trees to keep the deer from "mowing" them down. | ||
 |
While at Shiloh visit the National Cementary. Walk down to the Tennessee river & enjoy the view of Pittsburg Landing. The cannon to the extreme right is still loaded with a ball. A 24 pound boat Howitzer with a brass "tube" that has a green patina to die for. Just to the rear US General S. Ulysses Grant spent a verry rainy night under a large oak tree "planning" the Battle (mauling) at Shiloh.....his troops had no cover. Gunboats shelled this entire area from the river. | ||
 |
At the Peach Orchard cannons fired 500-700 yards across an open field (orchard) into the confederate troops in the tree line. At that range the smoothbores did alot of damage. Shiloh being an early war battle you see alot more of these brass tubes than the rifled cannons. Because of places like the Peach Orchard cannon technology vastly improved from 1862-65. The Napoleon cannon was the most popular smoothbore cannon in the ACW because of its reliability, safety & killing power at close range. It was the last cast bronze gun used by the American military. |

 |
The Hornet's Nest at Shiloh. If you were in these woods on the morning of April 6, 1862 you were probably a troop under command of US General Benjamin M. Prentiss. Your orders from Grant were to hold this line at all cost. You were looking down the business end of 62 CS cannon firing cannister & shell as fast as they could load.....at point blank range. After the battle locals said body parts had to be pulled out of the trees. The confederate troops made 11 charges againt the US line in a slightly sunken road. Death was wholesale. The 12th charge finally broke the back of the US troops.....the cost was unbelievable to both sides. | ||

Let me tell ya a story most will not have heard...a little local flavor from me. The time is November 1861 in Confederate controlled NE Tenn...Pottertown/Mohawk communities. "Tenn voted for secission on June 8, 1861, with residents of eastern Tenn voted 2 to 1 against secession but losing the vote to the state's large western population." In response a plan was hatched by a Presbertian minster William Blunt Carter to burn 9 railroad bridges from Virginia to Georgia.....the complete length of E Tenn-Bristol to Chattanooga. This plan was personally approved by Abraham Lincoln, General George McClellan & Secretary of War William Seward. This action would completely disrupt troop & war supply traffic from Richmond to the deep South along the E Tenn & Virginia railroad.....Richmond's only direct railroad to Atlanta. Also, immediately after the bridges were burned the Union army would invade E Tenn via the Cumberland Gap & protect the Union loyalist. One of these bridges spanned Lick Creek (Crik) about a 5 minute ride from my home at Mosheim. A party of about 60 loyalist men assembled at Pottertown & were secretly sworn into the Union army. After midnight on Nov 9, '1861 the raiders set out on horseback for the 2 mile ride to the RR bridge. They captured several CS troops guarding the bridge. About 1/2 of the loyalist guarded the CS troops while the other 1/2 burned the bridge down to the waters level...mission accomplished. The CS troops were given the choice of swearing loyality to the Union or be shot on the spot. Not surprisingly they swore loyality to the Union. Less than 24 hours later CS authorities had tracked down 6 of the conspirators. Jacob Hinshaw, Alexander Haun, Jacob & his son Henry Harmon, all 4 were local potters. Captain David Fry a Greene Co farmer & veteran of the Mexican War & Harrison Self. Two of these five men were hanged within a week...an interesting point here both men were hanged from the same tree at the RR depot at Greeneville, Tenn. Their bodies were left hanging for about 2 weeks as a warning to other loyalist here. Another died in jail before he could be hanged. Fry escaped a CS prison, shot 3 times & spent much of the war in the mountains as a Union pilot guiding loyal men to Kentucky to be sworn into the Union army. Self was pardoned by Jefferson Davis. The promised Union invasion never occured & five of the nine bridges were actually burned. "William Stringfield wrote This...was the beginning of great troubles in East Tennessee. This made my home a military camp for the balance of the war". In a nutshell this is just one of the stories I grew up hearing & I hope you enjoyed hearing it too. A side note in 2008 NE Tenn was at the end of a severe drought. During this time the water level in Lick Creek dropped by about 2 feet & the burnt off original bridge posts could be easily seen sticking up out of the water. | ||

Here's a house that if you do not see it here....you may never see it. Longstreet's billet at Russellville, Tenn where he wintered 1863-64. Bulls Gap, Morristown, Dandridge, New Market, Mossy Creek, Greeneville, Rogersville, Newport are all just a short drive away & all saw action all thru the war but especially this winter. At this stage of the war this country was so "poor" that Longstreet had to spread his men out over 6 or so many counties just to feed them. This home stood vacant for years although it has been recognized by the state. My understanding now it is in the hands of private investors who are content to maintain as original as possible for its historical significant. | ||

The Dickson-Williams mansion at Greeneville, Tenn. Built in 1821 it has seen its share of dignitaries, Davy Crockett, more than one President & during the civil war it was a billet to officers on both sides of the conflict. John Hunt Morgan spent his last night on this sweet earth in an upstairs bedroom. One morning in September, 1864 Morgan was "flushed" out & shot in the homes garden area. General Gillem & his 13th Tenn Vol Calvary had done the deed. On that morning as Gillem rode into town one of his troops commented that the gen'al was itching for a fight. It has long been a source of speculation of exactly how Gillem knew of Morgan's location. After Morgan's death his body was drug up & down the streets to Union cheers & finally thrown in a ditch. At the next meeting of these two forces Gillem's men would pay for this indiscretion. | ||

The Thomas-Russell house here at Mosheim.
