One of my ancestors, Asher Myers, lived in LCT from aroun 1818 until he died there in 1853. He is listed among those who served from Anson Co. NC in the War of 1812, (where he was born) but did not live to receive a pension. I wish we could compile a list of others who also served, especially from other states, who died too early to be counted among the pensioners. They served there country and it would be good to know who they were, too. Gale Judkins

HI all I found this nifty book at http://www.rootsweb.com/~txfannin/s.html It is Biographical Sketches of Texas; there are Dentons, Evans, Guthries, et listed in it, a searchable index then photos of the original pages. Enjoy, Mary

I need to send a "Thank You" to RGold for the education in this episode of what I was taught to refer as to the Indian wars. I have been indirectly researching James PATTON, and had been led to believe that he was killed at Fort Mims, AL. From your posting it sounds like he was involved in the retalitory mission. Was Talladega near Ft. Mims? There are other PATTON's in that time and area that I have been collecting information on, but it is hard to find. Family history I have been handed down takes me back to a Robert PATTON (wife Jane ____ ) that died in Lincoln Co. in 1813. I think the remaining family moved south sometime after that. Is there a source that I might gain more info about James and his family? Was he related to Robert? How? I have copies of work done by another that indicates he had married a cousin Elizabeth PATTON who later bacame the second wife of David CROCKETT . Thank you again for sharing your information.

Tennesseans at Talladega On a monument in the cemetery at Talladega, erected by the Andrew Jackson Chapter of the D.A.R. TO THE MORTAL JACKSON AND HIS GALLANT SOLDIERS The heroes of the Battle of Talladega, November 13, 1813. On the four side of the monument are the following names; Lieut, Larkin Bradford, 1st Lieut, Capt. G. Smith, Co. Col. Dyers Regiment. Coffee Brigade, Tennessee Volunteer Militia. Robert Moore, 1st Capt. Bradley's Co. Col. Newton's Cannon Regiment. 2nd Tenn. Rifles. Private Nathan Harris, David Gold, Adam Matts. Heremiah Curley, William Arnold, John Hopkins, James Patton, Absalon Russell, William McCall, William Fletcher, and Thomas Saunders. These men were killed or died of wounds received in the Battle of Talladega when General Jackson whipped the Upper Creeks who were besieging a party of friendly Indians in Lashley's Fort. CAMP BLOUNT Taken from the Fayetteville Observer, November 20, 1924. Camp Blount was located just south of Fayetteville, Tenn., across the stone bridge over the Elk River on the Huntsville Road. Camp Blount was established October 4th. 1813, and was named in honor of Governor Willie Blount, who was then Chief Executive of Tennessee. Now. this was a very important camp, but historians have not given it the recognition it deserves, and not many people of the state or nation have ever heard of Camp Blount, but very important events occurred from the rendezvous at this point. It was here that General Jackson assembled his army aggregating 2,500 soldiers. On October 11th, 1813, he marched his army down into Mississippi Territory (now Alabama) , and whipped the Creek Indians, who were the acknowledged allies of the British. Our envoys had been for some time trying to effect a treaty with the British, and this victory over the Creek Warriors quickly caused its consummation, but before however the victory of Jackson over the Indians our armies had been overcome by the British in the Northern States, Washington having been captured and sacked. At this time the people of London were giving burlesque shows, ridiculing our soldiers as cowards, but the victory over the Creeks put a decided quietus on such demonstrations. The overwhelming by the Allies of the British caused them to lose courage and give us the victory at New Orleans which saved the nation. In addition to the history outlined above it might be interesting to note that of the various commands that assembled at Camp Blount that General Coffee camped here, but left in October, 1814, and joined General Jackson at Fort Montgomery, near Mobile, Alabama, and with his troops took part in the capture of Pensacola and also in the battle of New Orleans. In 1818 when General Jackson was governor of the state of Florida, an army assembled at Camp Blount to fight the Seminole. In 1836, while General Jackson was president another army rendezvoused at this camp, later left for Tallahassee and fought the Seminole in Florida. Now, it does not appear that historians have properly stressed the historic events which transpired at Camp Blount, and the foregoing recital of facts are but briefly told but of sufficient importance alone to cause the government to establish a National Park at this point. {Signed] R.H. Gray, Jno. B. Blake. LCT Pioneers, Vol., IV. NO. 1 September 1974, Page 20 The marked site of Camp Blount is at 54.2 M. Here the troops of General Andrew Jackson Mobilized on October 4th, 1813, for a punitive expedition against the Creek Indians after the massacre at Fort Mims. Jackson arrived on October 7th, his arm still in a sling from wounds received a month before in a shooting affray at Nashville. When the troops returned a few months later they were mustered out here, after they had been praised. On October 5, 1814, about 2.000 Tennessee Volunteers assembled in the field before marching to Mobile to oppose the British, who were threatening New Orleans, Camp Blount was also the mustering ground for troops used in the two Seminole Wars. of 1817 and 1837. The Battle of Talladega was a battle fought between Tennessee militia and the Red Stick Creek Indians during the Creek War. When General John Coffee returned to Fort Strother after defeating the Red Sticks at the Battle of Tallushatchee, General Andrew Jackson received a call for help from friendly Creek who were being besieged by Red Sticks at Talladega. On November 9, 1813, Jackson's army arrived outside the village and their Creek allies inside the town yelled "howdy-do brothers, howdy-do". Legendary frontiersman Davy Crockett described the Red Stick counterattack as a 'rush of locusts led by a devil'. The Red Sticks, led by William Weatherford, inflicted 100 casualties upon Jackson. However it took only 15 minutes for Jackson to inflict 410 casualties on the Red Sticks and drive them from the field. After the battle, there was a significant lull in the fighting between the Red Sticks and Jackson's army. By December, the U.S. force was down to almost 500 strong due to desertion and enlistments running out. In January, in order to support the Georgia militia, Jackson marched toward the village of Emuckfaw with an inexperienced force. This move resulted in the Battles of Emuckfaw and Enotachopo Creek. After these battles Jackson retired to Fort Struther. When Jackson received additional reinforcements (some of them regular U.S. troops) he once again went on the offensive and met the Red Sticks at the Battle of Horseshoe Bend.

Hi Joy, I think there is a site somewhere that names vet.'s of the War of 1812...cant remember where it is...try google...I do know that a Daniel Warren of Lincoln Co is named on the list....I not sent off for those records, and at this time cant say for certain which Daniel Warren it was, the elder would have been 37, the younger, and my line would be 22, so both would have been old enough/and not to old to fight. Good luck in finding the site, if I run across it I will holler. Cindy

Thanks, George ------- Forwarded message follows ------- Date sent: Sat, 9 Sep 2006 08:42:31 -0600 From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: {not a subscriber} War of 1812 - Battle of Talladega Dear List, My ancestor, Private Hightower PARTIN, a "three-month soldier," who signed up in Giles County, Tenn., fought at the Battle of Talladega on 9 Nov 1813, near Talladega, Alabama. PARTIN mustered out after his three months were up, as did the majority of men who signed up as "three-month soldiers" to fight with Jackson. As I understand it, the men who fought in the Battle of Talladega were listed as soldiers in the War of 1812 (War with Great Britain and Creek Indians), because this was an on-going war that lasted beyond 1812. How many others on this list know of an ancestor who fought at the Battle of Talladega? How many others know of an ancestor who fought in the War of 1812? Is there a list of men from Lincoln Co who fought in the War of 1812 on-line somewhere? Thank you in advance for your help with this. Joy P. S. See below some information on the men serving in the War of 1812. - - - - - COLONEL WILLIAM PILLOW DESIGNATION: 2nd Regiment Tennessee Volunteer Infantry DATES: September 1813 - December 1813 MEN MOSTLY FROM: Rutherford, White, Williamson, Davidson, Franklin, Lincoln, and Maury Counties CAPTAINS: John H. Anderson, George Caperton, (Lt.)Joseph Mason, C.E. McEwen, James McFerrin, William Moore, Isiah Renshaw, William J. Smith, Thomas Williamson BRIEF HISTORY: This regiment, composed of about 400 men, participated in Jackson's first campaign into Creek territory along with the regiment under Colonel Bradley. Both these regiments fought at the Battle of Talladega (9 November 1813) where Colonel Pillow was wounded. An anecdote concerning Pillow at Talladega claimed that Jackson ordered the colonel to fall back once the Creeks attacked, but Pillow refused on the grounds that he would not let his wounded men be "scalped by the demons." Lieutenant Colonel William Martin, who took over the regiment after Pillow was wounded at Talladega, was later at the center of a dispute with Andrew Jackson over the enlistment terms of the regiment. The line of march would have taken these men from Fayetteville to Huntsville and on to Fort Strother, where the regiment was stationed after the Battle of Talladega. - - - - - COLONEL THOMAS McCRORY DESIGNATION: 2nd Regiment West Tennessee Militia DATES: October 1813 - January 1814 MEN MOSTLY FROM: Williamson, Maury, Giles, Overton, Rutherford, and Smith Counties CAPTAINS: William Dooley, Thomas K. Gordon, Samuel B. McKnight, Anthony Metcalf, Isaac Patton, John Reynolds, James Shannon, Abel Willis BRIEF HISTORY: Part of General Isaac Roberts' Second Brigade, these three-month enlistees were mustered in at Franklin, Tennessee and mustered out at Fort Strother. The regiment participated in the Battle of Talladega (9 November 1813). Jackson tried to get them to serve longer than the three-month term, but only Captain Abel Willis (Overton County) and nineteen men stayed. The number of men in each company was relatively small, averaging about fifty (one company, led by Captain James Shannon of Williamson County had a complement of twenty-nine men). Famed Presbyterian minister Gideon Blackburn served as regimental chaplain. - - - - - Pvt., Capt. Thos. K. Gordon's Co of Tenn. Mil. Drafted at Pulaski, TN Oct 4, 1813; discharged at Fayetteville TN (or Dittos Landing, Alabama) January 15, 1814. Hightower PARTIN was in this group. Hightower PARTIN lived in both Giles and Lincoln Counties, Tenn., as he is listed on censuses in both counties at various times. ------- End of forwarded message -------
