A banker friend of mine in Murfreesboro is married to a lady whose great grandfather rode with Forrest.

They have a museum or sorts behidn their home and have on display the buggy he had in Forrest’s detachment....very well preserved....with blood stains of course.

I published a decent art portrait of Forrest some years back....sold a few thousand of them.....a few folks here have one.

The artist died last year....an Indian or sorts.
