New Civil War Map Guides Columbia Siege Sites
A new five page map by the Greater Columbia Civil War Alliance outlines Sherman s February 1865 occupation of Columbia with highlights such as pontoon bridges over the Saluda and Broad rivers and the surrender ceremony led by Mayor Thomas Goodwyn. The piece notes the 1914 River Drive Beaufort Street monument, the Main Street march, fires that destroyed a third of the city, and remains of old bridges visible via the Three Rivers Greenway. It cites the First Baptist Church fire mix up and the Horseshoe and Lunatic Asylum as evacuation spots for frightened residents. The article also references a GCWA guide and a related History Press book for more on local Civil War sites.
