Death of John Morgan - 1C 51 - Greeneville, TN - Tennessee Historical Markers on Waymarking.com

Sign text:
The center of the present block was once the garden of the Williams house where Brig. Gen. John Hunt Morgan of Morgan's Raiders fame and his staff were billeted. Just after dawn a detail from Brig. Gen. Alvan C. Gillem's Federal forces slipped past Confederate outposts, surrounded the house, surprised and killed Morgan, and captured his staff.

Marker located on W. Church Street in front of St. James Episcopal church. The sidewalk was being converted from concrete to brick today, so could not take a straight-on photo of the marker.
