Ryeberg Home Movie: Battle of Stones River, Murfreesboro
Union forces won a vital victory here on these fields—they gained control of the Mississippi River, divided the Confederacy across Tennessee and Georgia, and blockaded major ports. But victory cost over 23,000 lives. From December 31, 1862 through January 2, 1863, General Braxton Bragg’s 35,000 troops fought it out with the 42,000-strong Union force commanded by Major General William Rosecrans. Rosecrans claimed victory.
The tall granite monument, topped with a bronzed eagle, sits at the center of the National Cemetery and is dedicated to the officers and enlisted men of the United States Regular Army Regiments who died in battle.
In the field, a man plays frisbee with his dog. But there was a day when these canons fired into the cedars, and the Confederates were forced to retreat.

Walking The “Slaughter Pen” at Stones River National Battlefield In Murfreesboro, Tennessee
This is one of the most chilling sites of the Stones River Battlefield. Many men were wounded and killed in this area on New Year’s day of 1863. The eventual Union victory would become a crucial starting point in the confederacies’ ultimate defeat in the Civil War. I was sweating profusely and had goosebumps during this walk, something I’ve never felt before.

Murfreesboro Storytellers Special: The House Still Standing
“The House Still Standing” documents the local and family history of the Gannaway/Ganaway name.
Burrell Gannaway (1785-1853) was a slaveholder and Rutherford County pioneer who fought in the war of 1812 and served as one of Murfreesboro’s first alderman. King Daniel Ganaway (1884-1944) was a descendant of a slave, owned by Gannaway, who joined the early 1900 Great Migration from the South to Chicago to become a celebrated African American photographer.
Their contrasting stories are told in a CityTV documentary highlighting the work of genealogists who revealed the silenced story of their ancestor while uncovering a local history.

Stones River National Battlefield
The Battle of Stones River (Battle of Murfreesboro) was fought from December 31, 1862, to January 2, 1863, in Middle Tennessee, as the culmination of the Stones River Campaign in the Western Theater of the American Civil War. Of the major battles of the Civil War, Stones River had the highest percentage of casualties on both sides. Although the battle itself was inconclusive, the Union Army's repulse of two Confederate attacks and the subsequent Confederate withdrawal were a much-needed boost to Union morale after the defeat at the Battle of Fredericksburg, and it dashed Confederate aspirations for control of Middle Tennessee.
