Geocache Description:

CONGRATS TO GoGo79 ON FTF!!!!!

Hardeman County was the scene of bitter fighting during the War Between the States, as was much of west Tennessee. Most notably, the Battle of Hatchie Bridge (also called Davis Bridge and Metamora Hill) on October 5, 1862, resulted in an estimated 900 total casualties (US 500; CS 400). Other key pieces of Civil War history include the Battle of Middleburg and the establishment in Grand Junction of the first "Contraband Camp" for liberated slaves.
