SC: Gen. Bates; Bryant, Harvey, Vandiver (c. 1871 KKK activity) - GKinard
Subject: SC: Gen. Bates; Bryant, Harvey, Vandiver (c. 1871 KKK activity)
From: GKinard
Date: March 11, 1998

Today I spent some time transcribing into my notes excerpts from:

Testimony taken by U.S. CONGRESS JOINT SELECT  COMMITTEE to inquire into THE
CONDITION OF AFFAIRS IN THE LATE INSURRECTIONARY STATES: SOUTH CAROLINA	
Volume I

This testimony, which involved Spartanburg citizens recollections of KKK
activity in 1871, mentioned a General Bates several times. Can anyone tell me
who is was? Confederate or Union? I am curious to know how he fits into this
picture.

Also, if anyone out there is kin to Reuben Briant/Bryant (Jr.), the Harveys or
the Vandivers of the Spartanburg area, I'll be glad to share my typed copy
w/them. It is rather lengthy, but interesting.

Regards,
Glenna Bryant Kinard
