Historical Sketch Gives Reason For
County's Naming For Andrew Jackson

want Jackson at New Orleans
and managed to get him and his
army stopped at Natchez. The
army was ordered disbanded
without pay or rations and told
to get back TO Nashville as best
they could or to join the regular
army. Thus they hoped to get
the army without Jackson. But
their leader refused to desert his
men. raised a thousand dollars
on his own and led them back TO
Nashville himself.
BY the fall Of 1873, Jackson
had won the Greek War, had
driven the British out of Pensa
cola. and early in 1874 won the
battle of New Orleans.
The battle of New Orleans has
been classified by many as use
less, since the treaty of peace had
been signed before it was fought.
This viewpoint is in complete err
ror and the results to the infant
United States would have been
far reaching if it had been lost,
Why and how? Fair questionsi
The peace treaty had tow re-
strictive stipulations, one in the
body of the treaty and the other
as a footnote. The first said that
the treaty would go into effect
when ratified, and it had not
been ratified before this battle.
The other, as a footnote, said that
no Napoleonic acts were recog-
nized, and we had bought LOUISE
ana from Napoleon and had in
sistently claimed that West Flor
ida was a part of Louisiana. The
British fleet, waiting at the Ship
Island roadstead till the Ameri-
can army should be defeated, had
on board a complete civil govern
ment set-up for Louisiana. Had
they won. the United States
would have been confined to the
east side of the Mississippi river
and to the north of the 31st par
allel. The Floridas and west of
the Mississippi would today be a
dominion similar to Canada. Thus
Jackson county is American in
stead of British, thanks to An
drew Jackson.
