"fractured skull" at Franklin......

Hello -

returning from a funeral in Atlanta a couple of weeks ago, my wife, daughter and I visited the Carter House and Carnton in Franklin, TN.

We were given a FANTASTIC (!!!!) tour of Carnton by Eric Jacobson (Eric - I'm the Native Arizonan who went to ASU and has a brother in Show Low.

All this inspired me to re-read one of my CSA ancestor's bio; he apparently suffered a "fractured skull" at Franklin (see URL below).

Damn....people WERE motivated back then.....

y.v.o.s.,

Ken
