PITT'S FOLLY is a historic antebellum Greek Revival residence located in Uniontown, Alabama. The house was built by Phillip Henry Pitts as his main home. It was designed by architect B. F. Parsons, who also designed the nearby Perry County Courthouse in Marion. Many local legends detail how the house gained its name, but they all center around the fact that the people of Uniontown believed it to be folly, or foolishness, that Pitts was building such a large house.

Phillip Henry Pitts was born June 3, 1814 in Essex County, Virginia. He was the son of Thomas Daniel Pitts, a veteran of the War of 1812 who moved his family to Uniontown in 1833. Pitts married in 1841 to Margaret Davidson, the sister of Alexander C. Davidson. The Davidsons were descendants of William Lee Davidson, a general during the American Revolutionary War and founder of Davidson College in North Carolina (Most of his children married members of the Brevard family who were my ancestors). Pitts himself was a large contributor to the college within his lifetime and his plantation diaries were later donated to it for preservation. Phillip Pitts recorded in his diary that construction of the house began on February 27, 1852. He also recorded the house being completed in April 1853. His assets by 1860 were valued at $175,300] At this time he owned two additional plantations, "Rurill Hill" and "Kings" for a total of 2,200 acres (890 ha). The 1860 United States Census of Perry County indicates that Phillip Henry Pitts owned 75 slaves in that year, though his children are individually listed as owning an additional 68 slaves. Pitts also owned stock in the Alabama-Mississippi Railroad. The Pitts' had ten children, most of whom were raised in the house, with two dying in the American Civil War. Phillip Pitts remained a cotton planter until his death on April 22, 1884. The house continues to be occupied by the descendants of Phillip Pitts to the present day.

Pitts' Folly is a two-story wood frame structure with wooden clapboarding. The roof is gabled on the east and west sides, with a flat roof over the portico. The front and eastern elevations feature a two-story portico with fourteen masonry Doric columns, nine across the front and five on the east side. A cantilevered second floor balcony wraps both sides of the house under the portico. The interior is divided on both floors by a central hallway. Several rooms feature decorative plasterwork. The house and grounds were surveyed in 1935 and 1936 by the Historic American Buildings Survey. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984. Strangely, the columns on the house which in addition to being on the front of the house also are on the porch to the left side of the house as well and were built to look like they do in this picture.

THE FOSCUE-WHITFIELD House, best known as the Foscue House, is a historic Federal style house just outside the city limits of Demopolis, Alabama, United States.

The Foscue House was built in 1840 by Augustus Foscue as the family residence for his plantation. In 1855 Augustus' daughter, Mary Alice Foscue, married Dr. Bryan Watkins Whitfield, son of the builder of Gaineswood. Augustus died in 1861 and the house was inherited by Mary and her husband. The house has remained in the Whitfield family to the present day and was recently restored by a descendant.

The house is two and a half stories and built with handmade brick. It features a five-bay facade at the front elevation and a gabled roof. A new brick addition was built onto the front of the house in 1849, requiring the removal of a two-tiered, columned entrance portico. A smaller columned entrance portico was added at that time. The full-width front porch with a hipped roof was added in 1920 by Jesse Whitfield, grandson of the builder, replacing the portico from 1849.

Gayle-Tunstall House at Greensboro, AL (built 1828-1829, listed on the NRHP)

There may be no home in the Black Belt with more history attached to it than this one. It was built in 1828 – 1829 by John Gayle, a South Carolina native. Prior to moving to Greensboro, Gayle lived in Monroeville, Al where he served in the territorial legislature before Alabama became a state. After relocating to Greensboro, he served on the State Supreme Court, represented Greene County in the legislature and was chosen Speaker of the House. In 1831, he was elected the sixth governor of Alabama and was chosen for a second term two years later. He also served as a U. S. District Judge.

This house was the early childhood home of the Gayle’s daughter, Amelia. She was the wife of Brigadier General Josiah Gorgas. General Gorgas, a graduate of West Point, served as Chief of Ordnance for the Confederacy during the American Civil War. He managed to keep the Confederate armies supplied with weapons and ammunition, despite the Union blockade and even though the South had hardly any munitions industry before the war began. Gorgas later served as President of the University of Alabama. Amelia Gorgas was librarian at the University from 1882 to 1906. The University’s main library is named in honor of her. The Gorgas’ son, William Crawford Gorgas, served as the Surgeon General of the U. S. Army who made possible the completion of the Panama Canal by eradicating yellow fever in the Canal Zone.

This house was also the home of the Hobson-Tunstall family for many years. Governor Gayle sold the house to a wealthy planter, Mathew Hobson and his wife, Elizabeth Munger Hobson. The house was next owned by the Hobson’s daughter, Augusta, and her husband, Wiley C. Tunstall. Mr. Tunstall was very active in politics and served two terms on the State’s first Railroad Commission (now the Public Service Commission). The next owner of this home was the Tunstall’s son, Alfred Moore Tunstall. He served in Alabama legislature for nearly 40 years and was twice Speaker of the House.

The Gayle-Tunstall Home is located at on the southwest corner of the intersection of Main Street & Demopolis Street in Greensboro (GPS coordinates 32.703903, -87.599329).

Co-ordinates 32°30′37″N 87°42′11″W
(Just to the east of Demopolis on US Highway 80)

Battersea is a historic plantation house in Prairieville, Alabama. The house was built from 1820-45 by the Vaughan family from Petersburg, Virginia and served as an early stagecoach stop. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places as a historic district on July 7, 1994 as a part of the Plantation Houses of the Alabama Canebrake and Their Associated Outbuildings Multiple Property Submission.

You can find the submission made to the Department of the Interior on line seeking designation of the Alabama Canebrake as a Historical District.

St. Andrews Episcopal Church at Gallion, AL (built 1853-1854, recorded in HABS, listed on the NRHP)

St. Andrew’s is a small Gothic Revival style church that is believed to have been constructed according to designs of the prominent New York architect, Richard Upjohn. The church was built in 1853-1854 by slaves belonging to members of the church working under the direction of master carpenters, Peter Lee and Joe Glasgow, who were slaves of Captain Henry A. Tayloe. The exterior of the church features wooden board and batten with buttresses and a steeply pitched roof. The interior of the church is notable for its beautiful woodwork – symbols and figures on the altar rail and in the chancel were hand carved. The interior walls were reportedly stained with a mixture brewed from to***co plants. The interior is virtually unaltered, including original altar rail and chancel furnishings, pews, organ and stained glass.

St. Andrew’s was photographed and recorded in Historic American Buildings Survey (HABS) in 1936. The church was added to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) on November 7, 1973, and was declared a National Historic Landmark on the same day. It is located in south Hale County on CR 12 approximately 0.1 miles west of the Gallion, Alabama Post Office (GPS coordinates 32.510083,-87.701000).

It is rumored that one of Thomas Jefferson's grandchildren is buried in the cemetery. I have looked it over but cannot find a clue.

ARLINGTON, Natchez, Mississippi, ca. 1819

Arlington is a historic Federal style house and outbuildings in Natchez, Mississippi. The 55-acre (22 ha) property, which includes three contributing buildings, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973. It was further declared a National Historic Landmark in 1974. Following a fire that destroyed much of the main house, it was placed on Mississippi's 10 most endangered historic places for 2009 by the Mississippi Heritage Trust.

Tradition maintains that Arlington was built by John Hampton White, a native of Elizabethtown, New Jersey, and his wife, Jane Surget White. The date that construction of the house began is murky. It is thought by scholars to have been built about 1819–20.

The architect of Arlington is unknown. Its design has historically been attributed to John Hampton White, but no documentation exists to validate the claim. What is documented is that Lewis Evans, a wealthy Natchez planter, purchased the land on which Arlington stands in 1806. Here he established a plantation and built a house. In 1814 he sold a portion of the plantation containing his house to Jonathan Thompson, a land speculator. Thompson then sold the Arlington property, including the house built by Evans, to Mrs. Jane Surget White in December 1818. Jane White was the daughter of Pierre Surget, a French emigrant at the head of one of Natchez's leading families. John Hampton White died on October 15, 1819 during a yellow fever epidemic. Jane White died on July 1, 1825.

Arlington has been considered by architectural historians to be "one of four important Federal Style villas which established the basic form for the later antebellum houses of Natchez." Situated atop a low natural hill, the red brick house is two full stories above a low basement. The exterior of the main block measures 64 by 87 feet (20 m × 27 m).

The front facade is five bays wide, with the three central bays fronted by a tetrastyle portico featuring four monumental Doric columns. The front doorways on both levels are trimmed with radiating brick voussoirs, with carved marble impost blocks and keystones. The openings are each filled by two sidelights with decorative muntins, and a fanlight around a central door. All of the window openings are enhanced with carved marble sills and lintels.

The interior is divided on both main levels using a central hall plan, with two rooms to each side. The east side features a stair-hall, with a fanlight-topped doorway connecting it to the main hall. The Federal style woodwork of the interior is refined. Of special note are the carved overdoor panels.

Service wings lie to the rear of the main house. At the southeastern corner of the main house is an attached one-story brick wing. It is fronted by a porch with slender, turned columns. At right angles to the one-story wing is a detached, two-story, brick outbuilding. It served as the kitchen and cook's quarters. Attached to the rear wall of this outbuilding is a one-story, brick carriage house. A two-story barn is situated about 150 feet (46 m) west of the rear courtyard, separated by a geometric boxwood garden.

During the mid-19th century, a full-width monumental portico was added to the rear. It features Doric columns matching those at the front and Greek Revival woodwork underneath. At this time a cast iron porch was added over a central doorway to the stair-hall on the east side of the house and the attached wing was reworked.

Arlington suffered a disastrous fire on September 17th, 2002 that destroyed the main roof and much of the second floor. A new roof was built through the efforts of the Historic Natchez Foundation shortly after the fire. Vandals subsequently broke many windows and destroyed or defaced much of the interior and exterior woodwork. Following a lawsuit filed by the Natchez Preservation Commission, the absentee owner was fined on December 2, 2009 in the municipal court of Natchez after being convicted of demolition by neglect.

The last time I was on the property the vandalism was horrendous. The marble had been removed from the house, a number of door facings had been removed along with fireplaces and other parts of the construction. In fact there had been a 20' mirror in the house. The mirror had been removed but the gold leave frame which held it was laying on the floor.

Haller Nutt (1816-1864)

Haller Nutt was born on February 17, 1816 on Laurel Hill Plantation in Jefferson County, Mississippi. His father was Dr. Rush Nutt, son of Richard Nutt of Northumberland County, Virginia. His maternal grandfather was David Ker, the first presiding professor (later known as university president) of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and later a Judge of the Mississippi Supreme Court.

Nutt was educated at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, Virginia from 1832 to 1835.
Career

Nutt returned to Mississippi and helped his father manage the Laurel Hill Plantation.

He owned several plantations, including:

the Araby Plantation in Louisiana.
the Evergreen Plantation in Louisiana.
the Winter Quarters Plantation in Louisiana.
the Cloverdale Plantation in Mississippi.
the Laurel Hill Plantation in Mississippi.

He mainly grew cash crops, including cotton and sugar cane. These plantations brought him considerable wealth. He made a net profit of more than $228,000 from agricultural enterprises in 1860. He owned 43,000 acres (170 km2) of land and 800 slaves. His fortune prior to the Civil War was estimated at more than three million dollars.

He suffered large financial losses during the American Civil War due to the destruction of his cotton fields and real estate. However, General Grant spared the Winter Quarters plantation because Nutt was pro-Union. Nevertheless, the expropriation of stores and supplies by the Union and Confederate armies led to the foreclosure on Nutt's plantations in Louisiana. After the war, he filed documents with the federal government that would compensate for the loss of assets due to the Union army.

Nutt married Julia Augusta Williams, the daughter of Austin Williams and Caroline Routh Williams, in 1840. She was only eighteen at the time. They had eleven children:

Caroline Routh Nutt (c. 1841-1842)
Mary Ella Nutt (1844).
F***y Smith Nutt (1846).
Haller Nutt, Jr. (1848).
John Ker Nutt (1850).
Austin Nutt (1852).
Sargeant Prentiss Nutt (1855).
Julia Nutt (1857).
Calvin Routh Nutt (1858).
Lillie Nutt (1861).
Rushworth Nutt (1863).

They decided to begin construction on Longwood in the spring of 1860. They hired Philadelphia architect Samuel Sloan to design the multistory octagonal in the Oriental Revival style. Construction of the exterior was completed by the beginning of the Civil War. With the threat of the Civil War looming, Sloan's artisans soon halted their construction, fearing for their safety, and fled back to the North. The basement story was completed by slave labor and was ready for occupancy by 1862. Longwood is the largest octagonal house in the United States.

Nutt died on June 15, 1864, of pneumonia. His family continued living at Longwood plantation after his death. He and his wife are buried on the grounds of Longwood where the picture of his headstone was taken.

SARAH ANN ELLIS DORSEY (1829-1879)

A recent biographer has written that "throughout her life, Sarah Anne Ellis Dorsey sought to combine the routines of a typical plantation lady with a sense of feminine intellectuality which superior learning and wealth made possible." Born in Natchez to wealthy and influential parents, she experienced the best of what life in the Old South had to offer. Her romanticized view of the antebellum period would later lead to her connection with Jefferson Davis and the Lost Cause that he came to represent.

Sarah Ellis married Samuel Worthington Dorsey in 1853, and between 1862 and 1877 she wrote six novels and one nonfiction work, Recollections of Henry Watkins Allen (1866). The Dorseys moved to Beauvoir on the Mississippi Gulf Coast in 1873 because of Samuel's health. He died in 1875.

In December 1876 Sarah Dorsey met Jefferson Davis and invited him to consider coming to Beauvoir to work on his memoirs. He accepted the offer the next month and began dictating Rise and Fall to Dorsey in February 1877. Davis was at her bedside in New Orleans two years later when she died. Dorsey left Beauvoir to him in her will.

She is buried in Natchez in the Routh Cemetery across the Street from Dunlieth.

CATHERINE FURNACE, CHANCELLORSVILLE, The Wilderness, Virginia

Visible here are the ruins of the Catherine Furnace which the Confederates had used until 1864 to aid in the manufacture of much needed weaponry. The previous evening, General's Lee and Jackson had decided upon a daring plan, a gamble that Jackson could take the majority of Lee's present forces, slip away from their current lines, and move unseen to the Union right flank. To bring success, Jackson would need to do so without the Federals attacking and crushing the much smaller Southern force which remained with General Lee to confront or distract the main Union lines.

On May 2, 1863, Lieutenant General Jackson's Corps began their flank march, moving past what at the time was both a functioning iron works and the left anchor of the small, southern line. The butternuts would twice turn south away from the main Union army feigning retreat in order to deceive Federal scouts who, despite southern efforts, observed their movements. Jackson ordered the 23rd Georgia to "guard the flank of the column in motion against a surprise, and call, if necessary, upon any officer whose command was passing for reinforcements." Despite an attack by Union Brigadier General David Birney, the column proceeded on their march past this furnace, led by the son of Charles Wellford, the furnace's owner. The lines marched four men wide and wound its way through the woods nearly ten miles long. Their objective was the unsuspecting, unprotected Union Eleventh Corp, the far right of the Union army.

Union Cavalry led by General George Armstrong Custer destroyed the furnace in 1864.

Okay, I have had several requests to tell how to do the HDR effect that I did on the Bank of Yazoo on this page:

1. In Lightroom duplicate the picture so you can keep your original. Urban sites work better but I have learned to use it on all sorts of pictures.

2. Click on the right side of mouse and tell Lightroom to open the picture in Photoshop. Upon opening click on the Image menu in Photoshop menu bar and choose Adjustments>Shadow/Highlights.Make sure the box in the lower left hand corner is checked.

3. Start by dragging the Amount slider under the Shadows all the way to 100%. This can be adjusted as can all of adjustments to give you pictures like the Shiloh pictures included below.

4. Next, drag the Amount slider under Highlights to 100%.

5. Because several settings have reduced contrast, go to the bottom of the dialog and start increasing the Midtone Contrast Slider. Depending on how you picture looks and your pleasure, you may want to take this to 100% although 70% is usually about the highest you will want to go.

6. If your picture is too light, you will need to start adjusting the Tonal Width sliders. 70% will normally be about at high as you will want to go.

7. If you have Halo Effects around the pic, try increasing in radius setting.

8. Finally, save you picture.

You can play with these various settings and adjustments and enhance pictures as well as making adjustments like the Bank of Yazoo (see Shiloh pictures and the pictures of St. Louis Cathedral). Otherwise, you can buy the On One adjustments and use the Color Effects adjustment which they provide and do the same thing.

Hope this tip helps someone.

Shiloh's Burial Trenches

Shiloh is relatively unique; the Confederate dead remain on the field, the majority of them in large burial trenches with the exception of two Confederate soldiers who had been taken prisoners and killed by Confederate cannon fire during the battle. Grant's orders of April 8th dictating that the dead be buried as quickly as possible applied to both sides. As Federal forces held the field, more care was given to the burial of the Union dead, and in most cases, efforts were made to identify the fallen. However, where Union dead were either buried individually or in small groups, Confederate dead were often placed in shallow graves or mass graves. Often these mass graves were made in spots where the fighting was the heaviest. It was simply quicker, easier, and more efficient to place Confederates in mass graves near the scene of battle.

While as many Union dead as possible were removed to the National Cemetery after the war, post war antipathies overruled arguments for combining the dead of both sides into one cemetery. Confederate soldiers had just waged a four year struggle against the Union, and in the late 1860s, the Federal government was not about to let them be buried alongside loyal Union soldiers. While attitudes of brotherhood, friendship, and bipartisanship between the North and the South grew among veterans of the war toward the end of the century, attitudes which we still largely recognize today, the wounds of battle were still far too fresh in the war's immediate aftermath to allow for Confederate dead to be included into a National Cemetery.

Thus, Confederates were left in large burial trenches across the landscape. As many as twelve such burial trenches exist at Shiloh, yet not all of the locations are marked or known. Early park historians knew the locations of nine such trenches, but the park only currently knows the exact marked location of five, the others all being lost to time. Thus, the battlefield itself is a cemetery for those Confederates who fought and died at Shiloh. With over 1,700 dead, the Confederate army suffered a staggering toll on the now peaceful fields surrounding Shiloh Church.

RUGGLES LINE
SHILOH NATIONAL BATTLEFIELD

Daniel Ruggles (January 31, 1810 – June 1, 1897) was a Brigadier General in the Confederate States Army during the American Civil War. He is best remembered as a division commander at the Battle of Shiloh.

Ruggles was born in Barre, Massachusetts, on January 31, 1810. In 1833 he graduated from the United States Military Academy in West Point, New York as 34th out of 43 cadets; among those George W. Cullum and Rufus King. He was appointed a brevet 2nd Lieutenant in the 5th U.S. Infantry Regiment and was posted in Wisconsin. He spent the next years in the Midwest with border duty and recruiting services. In 1839, by now a 1st Lieutenant, Ruggles participated in the war against the Seminoles in Florida. In 1840 he returned to the Canadian border; and Ruggles stayed until 1845 when he took part in the occupation of Texas.

Ruggles and the 5th Infantry, under command of Lt. Col. James S. McIntosh, were part of the 2nd Brigade under Col. David E. Twiggs. Participating in the Texas Campaign Ruggles fought in the battles of Palo Alto and Resaca de la Palma; his solid services securing him a promotion to Captain on June 18, 1846. Doing recruiting services after the end of the campaign Ruggles and the 5th Infantry joined Gen. Winfield Scott's army for the Mexico City Campaign, fighting at Vera Cruz, San Antonio, Churubusco, Molino del Rey, Chapultepec and Mexico City. Ruggles was breveted for Gallant and Meritorious Conduct to Major after Churubusco and to Lieutenant Colonel after Chapultepec.

After the war ended he was posted for frontier duty in Texas and the surrounding territories. Participating in the Utah Expedition in 1858 and 1859 Ruggles went on leave of absence for health reasons and stayed absent till the beginning of the American Civil War.

With the outbreak of the Civil War, Ruggles resigned his commission in the U.S. Army on May 7, 1861. Appointed a Brigadier General of Militia and Colonel in the Provisional Army of Virginia he was given command of the Aquia District in May 1861. There Ruggles set up shore batteries to block the Chesapeake Bay. After exchanging fire with the Union Navy Ruggles' troops resisted a landing party and prevented a Union beachhead in the Battle of Mathias Point.

On August 9, 1861, he was promoted to Brigadier General and assigned command of a brigade in Gen. Braxton Bragg's Army of Pensacola in Florida. Simultaneously commanding the District of Northern Alabama, Ruggle's brigade moved westwards into Mississippi with Bragg in February 1862. Ruggles now was assigned to command a division in Bragg's Corps in the Army of Mississippi. Under overall command of General Albert Sidney Johnston they marched northwards for the Shiloh Campaign.

During the battle of Shiloh (Union name Pittsburg Landing) on April 6–7, 1862, Gen. Ruggles, on Sunday, April 6, saw repeated Confederate charges against the Union line known as "The Hornets Nest" fail. He sent word to his commanders to "Get every gun you can find." Subsequently, artillery was collected from every part of the field and lined up in a row of 62 cannons, now known as "Ruggles's Battery" (the biggest concentration of Artillery ever seen before), which hammered the Hornets Nest until the last Confederate charge broke the Union line at around 5:30 p.m., forcing it to surrender, 12 hours after the battle had started.

At one time this was the barn at Dunlieth when it was Routhland. The main house was built along these same lines. I cannot say obviously, but Routhland burned and Dunlieth was constructed in its place. I need to note that there have been other houses in Natchez known as Routhland including one there now.
