Sharing Our History
(click "Medicine Lodge" to return to home page) Generals that battled the Indians John M. Chivington The hero of Glorietta Pass and the butcher of Sand Creek, John M. Chivington stands out as one of the most controversial figures in the history of the American West. Chivington was born into an Ohio farm family in 1821. His father died when he was only five and the burden of providing for the family fell to Chivington’s mother and older brothers. While he was growing up, Chivington worked on the family farm so much that he received only an irregular education. By the time of his marriage in 1824 he had been operating a small timber business in Ohio for several years.

Reserve Notes, Gold Certs. - Lots 167-203 Treasury or Coin Notes Among later issues of United States currency, none is more admired or more desired than the Treasury or Coin Notes, Series of 1890 and Series of 1891. These notes-similar to the Silver Certificates-related to the flood of Morgan silver dollars minted by the Treasury beginning in 1878. The idea was to create paper money to give out instead of the silver dollars, the latter not being popular anywhere except in certain mountainous areas of the American West. However, by 1890 the supplies of silver purchased under the Bland-Allison Act of February 28, 1878, were running low, and it was not certain how many more silver dollars would be minted. Hence, these particular currency notes are payable in coin, but not specifically in silver dollars. Not to worry, the Sherman Silver Purchase Act (1890) and the Trade Dollar Redemption Act (1891) made it possible to coin millions more of George T. Morgan's prodigies. Soon, Silver Certificates were made again-and in prodigious quantities. The Treasury or Coin Notes were payable in unspecified coin, unlike the Gold or Silver Certificates which were obligated in gold coins and silver dollars, respectively. The Department of the Treasury could pay either gold or silver coins at its discretion. At this time the future supply of silver dollars was somewhat uncertain, although the Sherman Silver Purchase Act (1890) and other legislation (such as the melting of trade dollars for their bullion) eventually produced enough of the metal to coin silver dollars through 1904.

A Brief Biography
of
GENERAL PHILIP HENRY SHERIDAN
John and Mary Minah Sheridan, Philip's parents, came to America in 1830 at the urging of John's uncle, Thomas Gainor, living in Albany, New York. John and Mary were second degree cousins from County Cavan, Ireland. Before leaving Ireland the couple had two children, Patrick H. and Rosa. Rosa died aboard ship and was buried at sea. Philip Henry was born March 6, 1831. His birthplace is still a mystery. There are no records available at Albany, New York, Boston, Mass. (where their ship landed), nor at Somerset, Ohio. Phil at various times claimed all three places. He arrived with his parents in Somerset as a babe-in-arms and spent his childhood here. The Sheridan family increased here by the births of Mary, Michael, and John L. Sheridan attended school in Somerset until the age of fourteen, at which time he went to work for various businessmen, notably Fink and Dittoe. In 1848 Congressman Thomas Ritchie, who knew both Phil and his father, obtained an appointment to West Point for Phil. In 1851, his third year at the Point, he was suspended for a year for fighting with a fellow cadet, William Terrill, Va. Brig. Gen., Union. Phil graduated 34th in a class of 52 in July, 1853, and was assigned to the 1st Infantry at Fort Duncan, Texas, as a 2nd Lt. In 1855 he was transferred to the 4th Infantry in the Pacific Northwest. In April, 1856, he was assigned to duty at the Grand Ronde Indian Reservation in Yamhill County, Oregon, and was promoted to 1st Lt.

Philip Henry Sheridan
At the beginning of the war, Philip Sheridan served in Missouri as a quartermaster, a post he disliked. But with his appointment as colonel of the Second Michigan Cavalry in May 1862, Sheridan began a series of important victories that proved his daring in battle, leading Lincoln to observe, "This Sheridan is a little Irishman, but he is a big fighter." In the summer of 1864, Sheridan oversaw the ruthless destruction of the Shenandoah Valley, eliminating the Confederate army's major source of food and supplies. That fall, General Sheridan rode more than twenty miles to rally his troops to victory after a surprise enemy attack, a courageous feat that became the subject of many patriotic prints and paintings. Brady photographed Sheridan in 1864, around the time he assumed command of the cavalry for the Army of the Potomac. Mathew Brady Studio
