...this is the calfkiller river ,reasearched the name aparently back in the day 1800,s there was a brutal rain and flood.farmers moving livestock to higher ground lost a lot of young of the year driving them across the river...got more river names to research " Obey,Obed and Clinch...found this tiny little civil war cemetery on the calf killer..." down in a" holler"...sad place..
this poor soul,yankees raped his wife and daughter killed his young son.Champ turned guerilla as a captain,along with 30 + native tn natives did a lot of damage...they caught him after the war,tried and hung.his last request " to be buried in good rebel soil" suprisingly the federal troops allowed .Here he rests...a sad reminder of a terrible wound on our land.
