More about Waynesboro

In November 1863 Tennessee's military governor, Andrew Johnson, sent Union Major John Murphy with two companies of newly mustered Union Guards from Wayne County to open a recruiting office in Waynesboro. Along the old Natchez Trace they skirmished with Confederate partisans and learned to watch for ambushes. Near town, a resident who mistook the veteran 7th Illinois Mounted Infantry, riding hard toward Waynesboro, for Confederates fled straight into Murphy's column and pointed out the Illinois men as guerrillas. The two Union forces fired on each other for several minutes, wounding three, before realizing they were on the same side. Forrest's cavalry passed eight miles north at Clifton on its West Tennessee raid of December 1862.
