“Civil War in Clarksville - Invasion by River and Rail"
Mark your calendar for our Annual Members Meeting scheduled on Saturday, May 10, 2025, at 8:30 a.m. CT at the Customs House Museum and Cultural Center, Clarksville, Tennessee. We are excited about the Middle Tennessee Preservation tour planned which will be held immediately following the Annual Members Meeting. Clarksville, a communication and transportation center, was strategically significant during the Civil War because of the Cumberland River and the Memphis, Clarksville and Louisville Railroad. Three forts on the Cumberland River, Forts Donelson, Defiance, and Clark protected this pro-Confederate town and many of Clarksville's residents rushed to join Southern military units. The tour will be led by Civil War historian Greg Biggs who has led several Civil War tours and spoken to Civil War Roundtables and other historical groups across the country.
