Here's my connection to William Clarke Quantrill. I live in St. Louis, Missouri so my 3X Great Grandpa Andrew Jackson Denny fought along side Quantrill Raiders and Jesse and Frank James. There is a Historian named Charlene Bry who wrote a book about the history of Ladue Missouri called, "Ladue Found." In this book it references Quantrills border raiders and my Grandpa who was famous for riding with him (pg. 42). Not something I am proud of but you can't change history! Grandpa Andrew Jackson Denny's father named Samuel Denny was from Kentucky and was the founder of Ladue, Missouri. Its a small world! Thanks so much Russ for this incredible video.. your hard work is appreciated and I always learn something new!
My ancestors lived in Bates and Johnson and Cass County Missouri. They were confederates. People were sympathetic to the James Brothers and Cole Younger. Quantrill and Bloody Bill were not considered heroes. Hell broke loose on the people of western Missouri especially because of what happened in Lawrence. They knew Lawrence was unarmed. All their weapons were locked in the armory . I’ve always read that the raid was because of the collapse of the jail in Independence on civilian women. Why didn’t they go after the union troops responsible who gathered not far near Ft Osage area. I’m guessing it was because those men were armed. I pray that none of my blood relatives rode on Lawrence but one might have. Those folks in Germany romanticizing Quantrill are delusional. He left Missouri and left the people to deal with the hell he created. He is not a hero. Bloody Bill was a psychopath
One of his scouts had ridden his horse down, so Quantrill told him to take his to the top of a hill and look for enemy movement. He was spotted and shot from the horse. The papers in the saddlebags made them think it was Quantrill. Quantrill lived to be elderly teaching school in Osceola Texas, using the name Charles P. Hart.
Bill and Jim Anderson also lived to be elderly. Bill was shot twice in the face in `64 and survived. For some reason this scares the crap out of people on both sides like they would rather not know. I'm not talking about the fake William C Anderson story perpetuated by TX ~Jay, I mean the REAL Scottish-Egyptian William "T" Anderson. The Brownwood Bill story is a red herrring.
I am so happy to view another awesome video Russ. I live in Shelby County and pass through Wakefield and Taylorsville every Monday. The marker along Rt. 55 tells the story of William Quantrill's raids. It was about to fall down when I made the State aware of its fate. Thank goodness it was straightened up. Jerome Marcellus Clark was the son of the postmaster in Franklin, KY. He is buried in the cemetery in Franklin. Glad to know that you survived your visit to Devil Anse Hatfield's grave in Sarah Ann, WV! You do such great work Russ. Keep it coming!!
I knew about the Indian Regts, because they had a bone to pick with the federal government over the Indian Removal Act in the 30's. I didn't know that Quantrill was and abolitionist first, but catching run aways and returning them to there owners does not surprise me. What I do know about him is he played both ends against the middle. He had mostly in his command younger boys/men 16/23 as his raiders. Most of these men had an axe to grind with the raiders from KS. There was bad things done on both sides. It reminds me of the RW in the Carolinas. Thanks for the info, I really like these local historians who investigate local history. In the future with no one writhing diaries any more, It will be these people who keep the stories going
The Cherokees fought at the Battle of Pea Ridge, Ark. under Stand Watie on the southern side. Two of the Scholl boys followed Quantrill in Missouri. Boone Scholl was killed when a Union officer shot him in the back in 1863 in Westport, (Kansas City), Missouri. His brother, George lived to a ripe old age. I've heard said that Quantrill's head resides in Higginsville.
Wow! Thanks for this information! Looking him up we see the connection to him and a video we did recently called “Daniel Boone sold him land”. The deed was signed by Daniel & Joseph Scholl, this guys great-grandfather.
I’m a descendant of the Wakefield family that owned the farm! One of their sons (my great great grandfather) Joseph Wakefield married a Filipino woman called Basilia Espiritu during World War I and made a life with her in The Philippines. The family didn’t approve of this and when Joseph came back to the States to make amends with them, he died of Tubercolosis and wasn’t given a headstone by the family unfortunately. His descendants, my cousins, now live all across the world - England, The Philippines and The States.
Generally I really enjoy your stuff. However, after watching the first six minutes I could tell they had not done there historical homework. Missourians had been abused by Jayhawkers since the 1850's. The War crimes committed by the Jayhawkers/Redlegs are always ignored, such as the Pottawatomie Massacre led by John Brown in 1856 and the Burning of Osceola, MO by the Jayhawkers in 1861. There is a reason the raid on Lawrence happened. Also the Cherokee regiments were from Oklahoma. You had the First Cherokee Mounted Rifles led Gen. Stand Watie, the highest ranking minority for either side, and the last Confederate General to surrender on June 23, 1865 in Doaksville, OK. Let me state that I am Living Historian and Civil War reenactor from SW Missouri and I had family serve with the Jayhawkers and Quantrill.

The Lawrence Kansas Raid by Quantrill's Raiders was on August 21, 1863 not August 31. Living just 25 miles from Lawrence I have been to many of the locations of the raid and to the Oak Hill Cemetery where many of the killed are buried. Estimates now list between 160 to 190 died. Many were burned and or dumped down wells or in the Kansas River and never found or counted. Many of the Black victims were never counted. This total does not include up to a dozen farmers used as guides for the raiders and then executed.
@@familytreenutshistorygenealogy There were three men from Lecompton, KS that were also killed at the raid in Lawrence. James O'Neill and two brothers, Frederick and William Klaus.
I think Lincoln has the record for being moved (relocated) a total of 10 times, due to his tombs being built and his body almost being stolen, but Quantrill has the record for being in all three graves.
Awesome video Russ. There's no telling what they can find on his farm metal detecting. Anything from civil war bullets to swords, muskets an just about anything related to the civil war. Wouldn't that be cool if they could find something with quantrails initials on it. That would be amazing. If he found a bullet in the tree, then there defently is more on the farm to be found. Awesome piece of Kentucky history. Catch ya on your next history adventure. 😁👍👍
Thanks buddy! Ya it would be wild to see what they can find. I believe Mr. Downs said they did a metal detector search there but it’s always possible to miss things.
@@familytreenutshistorygenealogy Yes it is. I have places I've metal detected for years an I still find things that I didn't find previously detecting. It's alot more then just swinging a metal detector over the soil though. An the type of detector you are using makes a big difference. The better the detector the better the finds. It all depends on the soil composition, If it's wet or dry. Clay slip or hard packed soil. An most importantly learning the sounds the detector gives for different types of objects such as iron,silver,gold,brass,pewter,copper,lead, etc... I really don't pay much attention to my meter on my detector. It's all about the types of sound your hearing. Something you learn by detecting alot. Once you learn the sounds then you will always find the goods. Have yourself a great weekend.
@@familytreenutshistorygenealogy Russ anytime you wanna learn how to or go detecting just shoot me a message. An then we'll head out somewhere an find some treasures/relics from many days gone bye. To me its kind of like saving a part of history that noone knows about. Thats buried in the dirt. An they can't see it until we uncover it from mother Earth. It could be from an old homestead or where an old tavern once stood or even an old stage coach stoop was at one time. I'm sure you know about Frank an jessie James an the James gangs history of them burying there money that they would take from bank robbery's an train robbery's an bury it out in the woods in a secret location an come back an get it later.There was also a time when they would put it in Mason jars an bury it, to pay the other riders involved in what ever they were doing. (Whole nother story). They would meet up with them at a secret location an tell them where they buried it. Then they could go an get there money for what ever the James had them do. One just never knows what you will find. An believe it or not some of that money has been found in different locations throughout the United States. To me everything I find is connected to a story in history. It tells, Who,what, where, when an why. Why was this dropped here or put here. The good thing about the detector I use is, it's also water proof up to 30 feet. So I can even discover lost things in creeks an rivers that the human eye can't see. Like civil war bullets, artillery shells,coins,guns, an knives. About anything you can imagine that at some point is was either thrown in the water by someone or dropped by someone when crossing the creek or river. Ford's (crossings) are an excellent place to detect or where old Mills once stood on the river/creek banks. We just never know what we will find everytime we go detecting. Thats the excitement of detecting. An if we don't uncover it, then chances are no-one ever will. Didn't mean to write you a short story but history is history. An it just seems like no one is much interested in it these days but when I find something it seems like everyone wants to know about it. Especially if it's old coins or civil war or native artifacts. 😁👍
Back in the 1970’s, some guy hooked a pole to a tractor and probed for Colonel Shy’s grave and dug it up. Shy was buried in a lead coffin and was embalmed with arsenic so he didn’t decay. The grave robber was looking for civil war memorabilia like swords or guns. Shy’s body had separated due to time and the robber pulled out the torso and it was dressed in a tuxedo, since the yanks had stripped the dead soldiers of their uniforms and burned them so they couldn’t be reused. The cops were called and they announced that Shy was in his grave and someone else was buried on top of his coffin. The coroner announced the dead body was poisoned with arsenic and dead only 6 weeks. A month later the coroner said he got the age, race, sex, height, but missed the time of death by only 113 years. Shy was rebutted in a new coffin and the lead coffin was put on display at The Carter House in Franklin TN.
I swear I'm not stalking you. But my uncle was a raider, and was killed in baxter, along with another man. He was the son of loving Bledsoe. And let's see, he is buried in an unmarked grave, They made a new graveyard, and both wear buried unmarked. I think it was not long before Quantrill was captured. His name was William Bledsoe, named for his grandfather. And yes Issac Bledsoe of the longhunters was his uncle also. Gen? Issac Shelby, named his child, Bledsoe Shelby, Issac has a son named Shelby Bledsoe.
Now that one you have me stumped on but I’m sure there are multiple sources of who rode with him. There is a ton of info out there about this interesting person of history.
@@familytreenutshistorygenealogy Quantrill's Men had reunions and I just ran across a list of men that attended a 1899 reunion in Lee's Summit in an old newspaper tonight at the Chronicling America Newspaper site. Several of their memorials have been found on Findagrave and inserted into my Border War Virtual Cemetery. I also added the two fellows that you mentioned in the video and all of Quantrill's memorials. There is a author who wrote about Quantrill by the name of Paul R. Petersen. My Border War virtual cemetery contains 764 people connected to the Border/Civil War in KS/MO and now Kentucky. You could read all the memorials like a book and get acquainted with the history of those times. Both sides are represented in my Virtual Cemetery.
@@familytreenutshistorygenealogy my great great great that road with quantrill was samuel constable . My cousin did a lot of family history stuff and sent me..she sent me a photo of a quantrill raiders reunion ribbon with the name constable on it..thanks for video it was great.. God bless
If you go to Shelbyville KY you can see an historic sign telling of the grim end of Capt Ed Terrell who was just as bad as Quantrill and his gang, but who is credited with killing Quantrill.
Interesting enough, SOME of the researchers, stated that Quantrill was " related " to the Cantrell family, and he is NOT any way related to the Cantrell/ Cantril families..
There is a different story that is the true story. William Quantrill was never a Confederate. He was killed as an abolitionist at the Morgan Farm with his band of Quakers as they were freeing slaves and a true Confederate took his identity. I am a King descendant. "Kate" King Quantrill reportedly married and had children with William Quantrill but I don't have any Quantrill cousins on Ancestry DNA.
Her name was Sarah but they called her Kate. My great great grandmother was Sarah Ann Farrington who was also born in 1848. Sarah Ann Farrington was the daughter of Susan King.
The Black Book says William Quantrill was actually Elbert DeWitt Travis, a younger brother of Colonial William Barrett Travis, who died with the Texans at the Alamo. I believe it.

Well I hadn’t heard that one. He died in a military hospital so that doesn’t sound like something they would do there.
That was Bloody Bill Anderson
Four graves, if you count the one in Augusta, Arkansas.
I always knew I came from a long line of crazy.
Many of us can relate to that! Haha
My last name is quintrell I wonder if by somehow we are related 🤔
I’d say it’s highly possible, at least in some way. We build family trees btw. 😀
Sorry guys, but this is so far from what happened to Mr. Hart.
What do you mean?
