Battlefield because he was born in a hospital that sits on the battlefield grounds. This is a man who is deeply rooted in that part. He also has a passion for parks that reach beyond the boundaries of his daily work life. He is finishing up work on a book for the emerging civil war series. Earlier this afternoon, davis talked about the rise of John Bell Hood and we will talk about the beginning of the fall of that very same army. Ladies and gentlemen, mr. Lee white. [applause] mr. White i have a special connection there and it is one of the reasons why i tell that story. I became familiar with general patrick cleburne. My first really big civil war biography was on patrick cleburne. His story is set in franklin. I have been interested in it ever since one of the top experiences of my life is when i went to franklin for the 150th on the actual date, november 30, 2014, and i was there and i found out that there was a commemorative march.

Breedlove was born sometime around 1820 in Essex County, the son of James Davis, a white man, and Polly Breedlove, a free African American. Little is known of Breedlove’s early life. The 1850 census identifies him as a blacksmith and literate. With his wife, Susan Breedlove, the daughter of Cordelia Drake, he resided in the Tappahannock household of Henry Adams, next to the blacksmith shop of the elderly James Lewis, from whom Breedlove may have learned his trade. When Susan Breedlove died of typhoid fever in December 1857, they had at least two sons and one daughter, of whom only George W. Breedlove survived to adulthood. On December 9, 1858, Breedlove married Eliza Ann Davis, the daughter of a black man and a white woman and therefore also free. They had at least two sons and two daughters.
