Dieter Ulrich published a very good historical study of the spat in "They Met at Lockridge's Mill," West Tennessee Historical Society Papers, 51 (1997): 1-20.

My hope is to visit this site one day and maybe find a long lost family member. I understand that the Grissom family may still be in the area and have recently found out that a young Union soldier who survived the battle was wrapped in a quilt by my 2nd great grandmother, Mary Benson Lockridge,  so he could get through the Confederate lines without being recognized. After 122 yrs, his family found Betty Grissom who confirmed that her great-grandmother gave the quilt to their greatgrandfather.   Does anyone know anything of Betty? or her children? or of any Lockridges that may still be in the area?    *snip*
