You heard of the Roswell Mill Women? To make a long story short when in 1864 when
Sherman took over the Atlanta area his men discovered a mill in Roswell on the
banks of the Chattahoochee River that made things for the Confederacy like CSA
uniforms and so on. Sherman had the women
arrested as prisoners of war and sent them north to work in mills there.
Of the women was one of Anna’s relatives Adeline Bagley. Wife
of Pvt J. Buice.
Adeline returned to her homeland many years later to find
her husband had remarried.
War is Hell.
She is buried in Sherril Baptist Church near Cummings,
Georgia.
