Notes for Reverend W. W. Phillips:

The following is an excerpt from an E-Mail I received from Cleo Hogan on 15 August 1998:

" ... Frank Phillips, only surviving child of Rev. W. W. Phillips (Clarksville's third Methodist minister) and Lucinda Norfleet Phillips Mickle, was a CSA soldier, and died at the Confed Vets home near Louisville in the (?1920's?), "AND WAS BURIED IN THE FAMILY CEMETERY NEAR PORT ROYAL" (sic), according to his obit (See Gannaway, again)--where is this? WHAT family cemetery? I've scoured the countryside looking for clues, and this is very important, for it would connect Frank, Lucinda, and James B. to Cordell, Maj James, etc!!!!!!!!!

"The only possibility I can muster is the Dr. PhilipFord Norfleet Cem, unless it's Maj. James' cemetery itself!! (There's no Phillips in the area at the time--or even since, I believe) Rev. Phillips was at what we call the "Early Methodist Church" [National Register property at the corner of Main and Fourth in Clarksville today--a brick apartment house], succeeded by our largest (1878, I think) Madison Street methodist church today. Incidentally, in 1998, Rev. Doug Norfleet came from Brentwood UM Ch,
Nashville to be senior pastor recently. I've not met him, but have spoken by phone, and referred him to your 'net Norfleet FamilyTreeMaker pages. [Which you've updated, I see!] Doug belongs to James B., thru Marmaduke, I believe.

"Oh yes: Frank Phillips was the cause of the 1878 fire that burned all of downtown Clarksville in 1878. A little known fact, but appears in the 1997 History of the Clarksville Police Department: After the War, Frank was a city patrolman, and in the line of duty arrested a black man who resisted, resulting in a shooting in the scuffle, after Frank was assaulted with a rock, I think, by the unruly arrestee. The arrestee was a formidable laborer with muscles, it seems, and Frank had to resort to his weapon to defend himself from the resisting of the arrest. As the defendant was
hustled off to jail, he was bleeding, and collapsed after arrival at the nearby jail (under the present Mayor's office, I think--perhaps a block from the scuffle). A mob gathered, and fire mysteriously broke out behind a wooden building fronting on Franklin Street, near the site of the 1878 (present) courthouse [which was built there after this fire burned down the Franklin St courthouse], and the rest is history. The man died, there was a trial, the record of which does not survive. Frank may have been absolved, as there were witnesses, and he returned to the force. Later, after 1880, he was a newspaper editor in Florida. Am still on his trail. had 6 or seven
children, two of whose obits are here in Gannaway's books. An interesting story you'll want to read in the Clarksville newspapers! Have never cheked the Nashville papers, but there may be more there?

"[Ursula Beach, our venerable former County Historian, who wrote,
"Along the Warioto", would not talk much about the causes of the fire, as
she did not want racism to be raised as a spectre in her term. Maybe this
wasn't racism, but just an unruly drunk--we'll never know. Ursula was born
in 1900, and talked with survivors of the fire in the 1920's, 45 years
later, and would have known all, as she was interested, and informed, and
one of my heros.] ... "
