Explains why citizens of Jackson County, Florida, slaughtered close to one hundred of their neighbors during the Reconstruction period following the end of the Civil War; focusing on the Freedman's Bureau, the development of African-American political leadership, and the emergence of white "Regulators."
War and suffering began in Jackson and surrounding counties of Missouri in the early 1830's with the persecution and expulsion from the state of the Mormons. Then in the 1850's the Border War broke out with between the remaining inhabitants and those living in eastern Kansas. When the Border War came to a close the U.S. Civil War began. In 1865 when that war ended for the rest of the country, Jackson and surrounding counties continued to suffer from the "Bushwhackers" who terrified, pillaged, killed, and destroyed the people and the countryside until the 1880's. One writer wrote, "Nowhere during the Civil War did people suffer such terror and tribulation as those unfortunate enough to reside in the guerrilla-infested regions of Missouri." [Jackson and surrounding Counties] “Compared to what they experienced, the civilians who were in the path of Sherman's famed March to the Sea through Georgia got off lightly.”
This speech was given by Mr. Griggs a number of times in this area. This copy xeroxed from his original March, 1970.
In Volume 2 of his acclaimed series on the history of Jackson County, Florida, author and historian Dale Cox focuses on the county's role in the War Between the States. From details on plantations and slavery to secession and the county's contributions to the South's effort during the Civil War, the book is the most detailed account ever written of the role of what was then one of Florida's most populous counties in the great conflict. With details on troops, Civil War casualties, life on the home front and the Battle of Marianna, the book is an outstanding contribution to scholarship on the history of the Civil War in Florida.
