Vinemont, about seven miles north of Cullman, lies near the site of the Battle of Day's Gap, fought on April 30, 1863. Union Colonel Abel D. Streight's brigade of about 1,800 men, mostly mounted on mules, had set out from Eastport, Mississippi, on April 19 to cut Confederate supply lines near Rome, Georgia, more than 200 miles away. At Day's Gap General Nathan Bedford Forrest's Confederates overtook the larger Union force and attacked three times, and Streight pushed on toward Rome. Wikipedia counts the battle as a Union victory.

More about Vinemont

The chase went on for days. Near Gaylesville, in Cherokee County, Streight agreed to talk terms with Forrest, who is said to have marched his troops past the meeting place again and again to make his force look larger. Believing himself badly outnumbered, Streight surrendered, and the Confederate Congress thanked Forrest for capturing a "largely superior" force. On April 9, 1944, a B-26C Marauder bomber nicknamed the "Katy-Did" crashed in a severe thunderstorm near the Roundtop community just east of Vinemont, killing all eight Army Air Corps men aboard, among them Colonel Lucius B. Manning, commander of Hunter Army Airfield in Savannah.
