Local Area Info: Champ Ferguson

Champ Ferguson (November 29, 1821 – October 20, 1865) was a notorious Confederate guerrilla during the American Civil War. He claimed to have killed over 100 Union soldiers and pro-Union civilians.[citation needed] He was arrested, tried, and executed for war crimes by the US government after the war.

Ferguson was born in Clinton County, Kentucky, on the Tennessee border, the oldest of ten children. This area was known as the Kentucky Highlands and had more families who were yeomen farmers; they generally owned few slaves. Like his father, Ferguson became a farmer. But the younger Ferguson also earned a reputation for violence even before the American Civil War.

On August 12, 1858, an altercation that would culminate a feud between Ferguson and the Evans brothers, Floyd and Alexander, resulted in the death of James Reed, the Evans' cousin and acting constable of Fentress County, Tennessee and the near death of Floyd Evans. Both men were stabbed repeatedly by Ferguson as he attempted to flee the mob justice the Tennesseans had meant to inflict on Ferguson after cornering him on their side of the border. In the 1850s, Ferguson moved with his wife and family to the Calfkiller River Valley in White County, Tennessee.
