I know the area well...there is another way to get to the top. From the shopping center, there is a Historical marker and a wide path up the hill. It looked wide enough to haul the cannons and equipment. I saw the fort before the school was built and most of the fence was still there. It still had the original undisturbed look when we last walked up the mountain years ago.. Sad to see how much it has been dug and vandalized. I'm from Columbus and many people still don't know it was a Civil War Fort. Enjoy your series keep up the good work!!

[@animalme537]

Wow, thank you for showing us this area! A great grandfather of mine (Wilder) fought and died in the Battle of Columbus in 1863 for the confederacy. He was one of the Wooly Hat Boys from Carrollton. His wife was pregnant with my ancestor when he died there, so he never got to see his son born or ever knew him. So we almost did not exist at all or just by the skin of our teeth in that instance. This is the area he was in, experienced, & saw before he died. It is a surreal experience for me having never been there myself, but getting to see what it looks like or may have looked like. Thank you for that! Take Care.

[@letsdothis9063]

I had ancestors living in Columbus, and Carrollton at the time. I'm not sure who fought where, but my dad would know. My family was mostly from Carrol county. Some still live there. Others live in Greenwood.

There is another way to come up this mountain...From the shopping center parking lot, there is a Marker and you can walk up the hill from there...the path is wider to probably haul up the cannons, etc. I'm from Columbus..know the area well.

[@LynnCochran71]

Robert E. Lee opposed Confederate monuments At the center of the “Unite the Right” rally that turned deadly in Charlottesville last weekend was a protest of the city’s plan to remove a statue of Robert E. Lee. White supremacists, neo-Nazis and others have made monuments to the Confederate commanding general a flashpoint - at times marching to keep them standing. But Lee himself never wanted such monuments built. “I think it wiser,” the retired military leader wrote about a proposed Gettysburg memorial in 1869, “…not to keep open the sores of war but to follow the examples of those nations who endeavored to obliterate the marks of civil strife, to commit to oblivion the feelings engendered.” “It’s often forgotten that Lee himself, after the Civil War, opposed monuments, specifically Confederate war monuments,” said Jonathan Horn, the author of the Lee biography, “The Man Who Would Not Be Washington.” In his writings, Lee cited multiple reasons for opposing such monuments, questioning the cost of a potential Stonewall Jackson monument, for example. But underlying it all was one rationale: That the war had ended, and the South needed to move on and avoid more upheaval.

[@stevemullinax5941]

[@kimberleyannedemong5621]

I agree. I got to Appomattox Courthouse last week and i almost cried. So much history. I could almost feel Lee's sadness

[@1927su]

It’s a hard thing. I do think history shouldn’t be forgotten, but it’s hard to continue to memorialize people who thought it was ok to own other people , however many troops that served then, were also just doing their duty, and they shouldn’t be forgotten that they served. Hitler & his atrocities are not forgotten, but a statue memorializing him would be weird. If a statue remains , a placard should be added telling the history, so nobody forgets, and people know what not to do again .

you were correct Wilson's raid the battle of Girard Al.was one of the 6 battle fought after Appomattox. good job.

[@plowboysghost]

The battle you're referring to was fought after Lee's surrender, but Lee's surrender wasn't the surrender of the Confederate government. Lee didn't have that authority. The Confederate national government never formally surrendered.

[@nicolepruiett2892]

I did not say he surrender the confederate government but after Robert E,Lee surrender it triggered a series of surrenders across the south.North Carolina,Alabama,Louisiana and Mississippi and western theater by June of 1865..Hope you have a great night history is a great subject.

[@plowboysghost]

Yeah...I reckon I was thinking more about the statement in the video. I took it to be that he was saying that this battle happened after everything was over....but as you obviously are well aware, the War wasn't technically over yet, even if it was pretty much lost. You have a great night as well.

[@carlruf9037]

One of the battles that happened after Appomatox because Lee displayed flipant behavior and arrogance during the surrender, according to newly found documents about the event. This led to unnecessary continued resistence and loss of lives by outlying holdouts...much like how the dems are acting after the Mueller report....even though, as we will soon find out, States rights are paramount to preserving...esp. when radical leftist ideals threaten... the very fabric of this nation.

[@bloodybones63]

@@carlruf9037 Don't ever say General Lee was not cordial to Grant. He was the soul of a gentleman. He asked for no more fighting to prevent just what you falsely said.

Growing up in a working class suburban neighborhood in the 1950's, in northeast Atlanta near the Buckhead area, there was a treasure trove of civil war ammunition to be found There was a small creek flowing through a heavily wooded area behind our house where we always used to play. We liked to dig around in the forest floor and we found a lot of musket balls, and arrowheads were laying around everywhere. There must have been a native Indian village there in the past. Once when we were building a mud dam across the creek I unearthed a cannonball. It was the kind of setting kids love to be in.

The Battle of Palmito Ranch is considered by some criteria as the final battle of the American Civil War. It was fought May 12 and 13, 1865, on the banks of the Rio Grande east of Brownsville, Texas and a few miles from the seaport of Los Brazos de Santiago. Since the Confederacy had ceased to exist, it is also argued that this battle should be classified as a postwar action. Union and Confederate forces in southern Texas had been observing an unofficial truce since the beginning of 1865. But Union Colonel Theodore H. Barrett, newly assigned to command an all-black unit, and never having been in combat, ordered an attack on a Confederate camp near Fort Brown for unknown reasons. The Union attackers captured a few prisoners, but the following day the attack was repulsed near Palmito Ranch by Colonel John Salmon Ford, and the battle resulted in a Union defeat. Union forces were surprised by artillery, said to have been supplied by the French Army occupying the nearby Mexican town of Matamoros. Casualty estimates are not dependable, but Union Private John J. Williams of the 34th Indiana Infantry Regiment is believed to have been the last man killed in this engagement. He could then arguably be reckoned as the last man killed in the war. The engagement is also known as the Battle of Palmito Hill.
