Trion and Ebeneezer Church took place during Wilson's Raid. There are very goods descriptions of both in Wyeth's "That Devil Forrest". Hog Mountain was one of the initial actions in Straight's Raid and should be covered in the same book. Fort Tyler was the last action to take place east of the Mississippi during the war, if I'm not mistaken. It's also cited under the designation Girard, Ala., Apr. 16, 1865. Tyler was named for the Tennessee general commanding the ill-fated garrison who was killed during the fighting.
