About the Book

I have owned the two original Volumes of "Memoirs of Mississippi, 1891" for over twenty years, but only recently tried to use them for research on original issues for Mississippi from its beginnings to the Civil War, but size, format, age of printed pages, and un-search ability of them made it impossible to construct a summary of the information. I decided that it needed to be made into a more usable book by transcribing it into a modern format (digital, and searchable), making it more economical to reproduce and to share with others. I originally thought that a chapter by chapter transcription and publishing would be best, but decided that a somewhat larger, but less than volume size would be best. This book includes Chapters 6 and 7. Chapter 6 discusses the early wars in which Mississippi was involved: Of these six wars and expeditions discussed five were national and one civil, a striking circumstance, and one which furnishes a basis for a division of the subject, the Civil war, the one fought for the states' rights, being assigned to another chapter (Chapter 7). Of the five national wars and expeditions, the first was for protection of boundary, the second for protection of life, the third for vindication of honor, the fourth from sympathy with a fellow repub¬lic coupled with fear of invasion, and the fifth to secure a newly acquired territory. The second and third are so curiously intermingled and yet separate that they may be with equal fairness classed as two phases of one war. These national movements are: First, the Sabine expedition of 1806 to protect our Louisiana frontier from the Spaniards. Second, the Muscogee war of 1812-14 against the uprising of the southern Indians in the famous Tecumseh conspiracy for extermination of the whites. Third, the British war of 1812-15 in its final action at New Orleans. Fourth, the Texas war of 1836. And Fifth, the Mexican war of 1846-48. Finally Chapter 7 discusses the Civil War from the Mississippi Secession, soldiers of the state, distinguished troops, actions at and prior to Vicksburg, desertions, and the surrender, reconstruction, the iron-clad oath, and finally back in the USS (1870's style). We hope you appreciate this early history, and the wars, and sacrifices the new state and its original people endured to become a State, and to be readmitted after the war,
