THE FIFTH (1ST MIDDLE) TENNESSEE CAVALRY REGIMENT, U.S.A. By F. W. Weatherbee, Jr.
Once secession has become a reality but before hostilities began, congressman William B. Stokes, of Dekalb County,
Tennessee, remarked, "I am a submissionist." His Congessional cohort, Emerson Etheridge, also from Tennessee, agreed that secession was the wrong course of action to be taken. But, in April 1861, the first
shots were fired at Fort Sumter and two months later, on June 24th, Tennessee seceeded from the Union, the last state to do so.
A number of Union volunteer units were organized from Tennessee. Among these,
the 5th Tennessee Cavalry Regiment, also known as the 1st Middle Tennessee Cavalry Regiment, was organized a little over a year after Tennessee seceeded. It played a major part in the many cavalry actions which took
place in Middle Tennesse.
Along with detailing the operations and movements of the Regiment, the author lists the names of members of this unit, which will aid genealogists and historians immensely.
