Wow. My wife has ancestors that fought in the Battle of Franklin, and we’ve toured the house a couple of times. We’re planning on making it to the descendants gathering at some point. The idea of my kids’ great-great-...-grandfather marching across that valley into the Union lines and near-certain defeat is haunting. They knew it was a lost cause, without question. We make it a point to play “The Bonnie Blue Flag” every time we drive through that area.
