Letter to A.G. Waldrop, Jefferson County, Alabama
From :
Jonesborrough P.O., Bay Springs, Miss
Dated 7/29/1847

Dear Cousin:
     I take my pen in hand to let you know that we are all well at present.  Hoping these few lines may find you all well.  I received your letter dated March the 19th, which gave me great satisfaction to hear that you was all well and doing well.  You will please excuse my long delay of writing to you. The connection is all well as far as I know. Crops is tolerable good. Corn is scarce. Old corn is worth 754 per bushel, bacon 10 to 12, wheat $1 per bushel. I want to hear from you all. Uncle Robert and Aunt Nancy, Uncle Zachariah and Aunt Hester, and Aunt Jane McClurken, and all of my cousins.  Tell them that I would be glad to see them all.  James Lindsey is before the people for a seat in the State Legislature.  Brother Carrel and David Franklin is merchandising. Wm. C. Lindsey has been twice to Louisvillle, Ky. to buy goods.  B.L. Lindsey is teaching school and I finished laying cotton yesterday.  We have had two children since I wrote you before, one is a boy and the other a girl. They are 9 months old. We call the boy John Micajah, and the girl Nancy Lavina. We think they are very smart and pretty.
     My dear cousin give my respects to all of the connection in that part of the country. Tell them that I would be glad to hear from them all when I write to one I write to all. I would be glad to hear from them and converse with you face to face but as we live in different parts of the country, we can all write or have it done. Any of you can write better than I can, let me hear from you all and where you all live. I understand that Cousin Samuel Waldrop had moved somewhere in this state. If so let me know where he is so that I can write to him and learn how he is doing. Mother wants to see you all very bad. We had two barbecues in this neighborhood for the purpose of celebrating the fourth of July. One was on the 3rd and the other the 6th. They was both very well managed and good order prevailed throughout. The celebration was opened by prayer then the declaration read and a very appropriate address was made by Dr. Robert Morrow. He give the anti-war party thunder. I must come to a close, so no more at present but still remain, truly yours,
     Holland Lindsey

     All that part of the Chickasaw bordering on the Tombigbee river was called
Monroe, and February 9, 1836, Itawamba was formed out of that territory and organized
into a county, embracing about half of what is now Lee county, and part of Prentiss
and Tishomingo counties.

     The town of Fulton, the county seat, situated on the east bank of the
Tombigbee, was laid off in 1836, and Charles Warren was elected the first sheriff;
Louis Gideon, probate clerk; C. H. Ritchie, probate judge; R. O. Beene, circuit
clerk.  The first board of supervisors met in September, 1836; J. S. Bourland was
elected president.  The other members were A. G. Lane, John Beene, S. S. Sperman
and E. Allen.

     It is possible that the first white man to visit and settle in this section
was Isaac Edwards in 1827.  He was soon followed by J. S. Bourland, Everett
Sheffield, John and Alfred Dulaney, M. Harrison, Reuben Wiygul, H. Jamison,
Holland Lindsey, Jacob Green, Dorn Patton, Charles Warren, Josiah Lindsey, E. G.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^                                                                         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Thomas, Samuel Bell, Ed. Lesley, all now dead.  J. Robins and M. C. Cummings,
still living, were among the first settlers in 1836.  The land sales took place
at Pontotoc and the county rapidly settled up.

     The Tombigbee river runs through the county from north to south, and
numerous crreeks afford fine water power.  There are several earthenware
factories and some wool carding mills in the county.  The river furnishes
transportation during part of the year.  Much of county is finely timbered.  Some
timber is being rafted out by the river.  The principal varieties growing here
are the oaks, pine, hickory, maple, beech, walnut, gum and cypress.  This is a
hilly county, with fertile valleys, and the chief products are corn, cotton,
fruits of all kinds, oats and some wheat.  The county abounds in good water from
never-failing springs.  Many fine streams run into the Tombigbee in this county.

                  Ulysses S. Grant advanced cross-country to invest Fort Donelson. On
                  February 16, 1862, after the failure of their all-out attack aimed at
                  breaking through Grant’s investment lines, the fort’s 12,000-man
                  garrison surrendered unconditionally. This was a major victory for Brig.
                  Gen. Ulysses S. Grant and a catastrophe for the South. It ensured that
                  Kentucky would stay in the Union and opened up Tennessee for a
                  Northern advance along the Tennessee and Cumberland rivers. Grant

CROWN HILL CEMETERY PROJECT

On October 3rd 1993 a four year project was completed when a monument was dedicated to 1,616 Confederate soldiers and sailors at Crown Hill Cemetery in Indianapolis, Indiana.

In 1989 two Indianapolis police officers, interested in historical preservation, started an effort to have the mass grave of Confederate prisoners of war properly marked. Four years later, after being joined by such organizations as the Civil War Roundtable, Sons of Confederate Veterans, Sons of Union Veterans, American Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars, the Southern Club and many other groups and individuals, a new Confederate memorial was dedicated.

In Indianapolis during the Civil War, 1,616 Confederate soldiers and sailors died from the harsh treatment and conditions prevalent in military prisons in those days. These men were being held in Camp Morton, which held approximately 5,000 prisoners at any one time. A total of 15,000 men passed through the camp between 1862 and 1865. Orignally, the Confederates who died while being held at Camp Morton were buried at Greenlawn Cemetery near downtown Indianapolis. Years later when bodies were removed from this cemetery to make way for industrialization, the first monument to the Rebels was removed to a city park. Several years later, the bodies of the Confederates were moved to Crown Hill Cemetery, without their monument.

Since the 1912 monument would no longer fit onto the mass grave site at Crown Hill, a new marker at Crown Hill stated "1,616 Unknown Confederates". But, records from the National Archieves and from the old monument, revealed all of the names, dates of death and ranks of the deceased. So the Crown Hill Cemetery Project was created to right this wrong. This effort proved to be the forerunner of the current Indiana Coalition to Honor Civil War Dead.

At a beautiful ceremony in 1993, before hundreds of onlookers, the new Confederate Memorial was dedicated at a service attended by many officials and relatives of the dead. The keynote speaker was Congressman Andrew Jacobs, a supporter of the project. At this dedication were military honor guards from the United States Army and Civil War reenactors.

Now the 1,616 Americans buried at the Confederate mound in Crown Hill rest in peace, properly recognzied at last.

Notes for AMANDO M. LINDSEY:
May have died young - not mentioned in letter from John M Lindsey to Benjamin S Lindsey detailing CSA service of John and his brothers. Or maybe it was just because he was too young to be in the war?
Name appears in a census record. Could he have been a son of James? James was certainly old enough to have been married before the Civil War.
