Great Networking opportunity while viewing Civil

War History

Once upon a time in the land of cotton, there lived a

planter and a businessman by the name of John Alexander

Klein. Being a shrewd young man, he diversified his wealth

in the fields of banking, lumber and cotton. He began the

Greek Revival style mansion we know as Cedar Grove in

1840.

In Europe, Klein bought many of the furnishings we now

find at Cedar Grove like the Italian marble fireplaces,

French empire gasoliers, Bohemian glass for the doorway,

towering gold leaf mirrors, exquisite clocks and paintings

that adorn the mansion. In New Orleans, he commissioned

Prudent Mallard to make several pieces of furniture. The

best example of his work can be found in the Grant Room.

In 1852, Cedar Grove was finished.

Then the War came and Cedar Grove experienced bom-bardment by cannon. A cannon ball is still lodged in the parlor wall. The Kleins survived the War with their house in tact mainly because it had been used as a Union hospital. Many of the furnishings are original to the house.

Visit and explore Battleground of the Civil War. The Vicksburg National Cemetery is the nation’s largest burial site of Civil War

Union soldiers and sailors. The graves total over 17,000 of which, almost 13,000 are unknown. The USS Cairo Gunboat & Mu-

seum allows you to explore a Union Gunboat preserved by mud and silt at the bottom of the Yazoo River for 102 years before

being raised and placed on display.
