Civil War Union Brigadier General. He was a long-time career United States Army officer who is best remembered in history as being in command of Fort Sumter, Charleston, South Carolina when Confederates bombarded it on April 12, 1861, starting the Civil War. A graduate of the United States Military Academy at West Point, New York in 1825, he placed 15th of 37, and his classmates included future Union Generals Charles F. Smith and William R. Montgomery, as well as future Confederate Generals Daniel S. Donelson and Benjamin Huger. His subsequent service was spent mostly in the artillery arm, which he fought in during the Black Hawk War, the various Seminole Wars in Florida, and in the Mexican War (he would receive two brevets for gallantry there). Promoted to Major in 1857, he was placed in command of the forts in Charleston Harbor in November 1860. In April 1861, after a number of Southern states had formed the Confederate States of America, he was presented with a formal surrender demands by Confederate authorities in Charleston, which he refused. After 34 hours of constant shelling, he would capitulate, but not before he saluted the flag with a 50-gun salute. The rebel bombardment and his defense of the Fort constituted the true beginning of the Civil War, and the commander of the Confederate forces that shelled the Fort, General P.G.T. Beauregard, had been taught and mentored by Robert Anderson at West Point. Promoted to Brigadier General after his exchange, his successive Civil War service was brief. General Anderson commanded forces in his native Kentucky for a time, fell ill, and was retired in 1863. When the South surrendered in 1865, General Anderson was detailed to raise the American flag over Fort Sumter exactly four years after he was forced to surrender it. He received the brevet of Major General, US Regular Army in April 1865.

Harriette Lusid Stull Anderson
I have an old photograph of Harriette STULL which was taken by the J. A. Tweit Studio in Valley City, ND sometime in the early 1900’s most likely. Harriette is said to be 22 months old at the time the photograph was taken in the front yard of a home with Harriette in an old wicker stroller.

The first is a photograph of Annie ERICSSON which was taken at the Towne Studio in Portland, OR in the 1880's with Annie likely in her teens or 20's at the time it was taken. The second photograph is identified as "Grandpa ERICSSON" and was taken in the 1880's as well at the Partridge Studio in Portland, OR with the man in his teens or 20's at the time it was taken.

When she applied to an all-white music school, the Philadelphia Music Academy (now University of the Arts), according to Wikipedia she was turned away "because she was black. The woman working the admissions counter replied, "We don't take colored" when she tried to apply. Undaunted, Anderson pursued studies privately in her native city through the continued support of the Philadelphia black community, first with Agnes Reifsnyder, then Giuseppe Boghetti.

In the Dallas Morning News, June 12, 1936 it was reported that my relative John Thomas Anderson was credited with saveing the life of General U.S. Grant by deflecting a fellow Confederate Soldier's rifle who intended to shoot General Grant as he rode to the home of Mr. Wilber McClain to receive the surrender of General Robert E. Lee.

You know how people sometimes say you shouldn't dig too deep when researching your ancestors because you might find one of them was 'hung for a horse thief'? Well, I'll be darned if that wasn't almost the truth in this case!
Keep on reading and you will encounter an 1866 newspaper article about my (in)famous great-great-great uncle Peter Anderson, who family legend has it ended up killed in a bar brawl in California years after the events described in this story took place, although we're not certain about that.
Here it is:
From "The Fredericksburg Ledger," Fredericksburg, Virginia
May 29, 1866 Page 3, Column 1.
A Horse Stealing Case
About two weeks ago, a stranger came here and offered our fellow-citizen, W.M. Lang, a horse, which he bought. Lang, giving $60 cash and his note for one hundred dollars at sixty days.
In a few days afterward, he was shown a handbill from Tenallytown, D.C., which showed conclusively that the horse was stolen. Mr. Lang at once took a guard of soldiers, the officers of the town, being all absent at Spotsylvania Courthouse, attending Leitch's trial.
Going to where the man, Peter Anderson lived in Stafford County, they surrounded the house and caught Anderson, though he attempted to make his escape. After tying him, they took him in a wagon and had gotten him as far as Falmouth, at which place about 9 P.M. at night, it being very dark, Anderson succeeded in making his escape, having gotten loose the cords with which he was bound.
Our friend Lange, got his money back, and the identical money too. Anderson when caught, had some $800 on his person, the proceeds, it is said, of the sale of some seven or eight stolen horses.

Music and songs have been my lifelong friends. They have accompanied me through my childhood and past the rocky years of adolescence. They have helped me express my love and provided solace in times of grief. If I was in a silly mood, there was a song to express it; if there was a time of deep spiritual reflection, a song framed it in my mind.
When I think of favorite songs back in the "Good Old Days", I have a specific one that floods my mind.
"In a vine-covered shack in the mountain,
Bravely fighting the battle of time
Is a dear one who's weathered life's sorrows,
'Tis that silver-haired Daddy of mine.
If I could recall all the heartaches,
Dear old Daddy, I've caused you to bear,
If I could erase those lines on your face
And bring back the gold to your hair,
If God would grant me the power,
Just to turn back the pages of time.
I'd give all I own if I could but atone,
To that silver-haired Daddy of mine.
I know it's too late, dear old Daddy,
To repay for the sorrow and care
But dear Mother is waiting in Heaven
Just to comfort and solace you there.
*I have heard my Father sing this song so many times...but never understood the true depth and implication until he passed away June 12, 2001.
