Silent City - Murrell Burton portrays great grandfather
2019-10-10 - Columbia - Photo by Tiffany Kessler, columbiamagazine.com
This year's Silent City program provided the opportunity for Murrell Burton to portray his great grandfather Isham Scott (1841-1923), a Union Sergeant who served in the Civil War.
Sgt Scott was 22 when he enlisted and just over a year later was captured in Chickamauga, GA and sent to the infamous, deadly Andersonville Prison.
Isham survived his horrid experiences there and, after three years with Company L, 6 KY Cavalry, came home to enjoy married life and raise 14 children.
In the background is Kenneth Scott, another great-grandson of Isham Scott. Comments | Permalink
