Carroll Co, TN was one of the 5 counties in West Tennessee who voted "No Separation" on the 2nd vote. The number of soldiers who can be identified was almost even. In a study of 398 families of Union soldiers and 390 Confederate soldiers (336 and 316 households) in Carroll Co, TN, almost the same number owned farms or lived on family owned farms (211 USA, 207 CSA). (Even the number of soldiers who lived in households headed by women almost matched (20-25).) The county contributed about the same number of landless men or men from landless families to each side (125 USA-110 CSA). The poorest of the poor were about equally divided between the armies. Within the population that owned real estate, however, the value of real estate for USA soldiers/families averaged only $812, while that of CSA soldier/families averaged $2,427. Only one Union soldier’s family owned real estate worth $10,000 or more ($10,110) while twelve CSA soldiers families held land worth from $10,000 to $25,000. In this West Tennessee County the small to medium farm owner families were more likely to fight for USA while the medium to large landowner families supported the CSA. About 25% of the CSA soldiers’ families owned slaves (80 owners, 2,441 slaves) as compared to 5% of USA soldiers’ families (16 owners, 75 slaves). Personal property values were much higher for CSA families as slave values were included. A study of Washington Co in East Tennessee had similar results.
