Reunion of Nomadic Band at the Grave of Their Dead Leader
A nomadic group gathers in Nashville for their annual rites to honor and bury their late king Thomas McNally in Mt Calvary cemetery. The procession, church service, and vault vigil mark a solemn farewell by hundreds who travel by wagon or train from across the South, with McNally’s death noted as Birmingham in 1902. The band, often called eypsias though not accurately, caravans through the region, living in wagons and trading horses, encamping near Helmont College before continuing to Chattanooga and on to Georgia and Florida for the winter. One member, Mike O Neal, claimed as a Sioux descendant, draws interest.
