They Should Be Hung Or Shot?

I know a lot of family researchers don't like reading about a family member who may have done something wrong it's like they give the family name a black eye and in some way tarnished the name. All I can say to this is if this is the way you feel then stop right now you can't take out the bad and just leave in the good. If you do you won't have a full family history and lets face it most family's have a few bad apples in them if you take out the bad you may turn your family history into something dull and uninteresting to read that otherwise may have been exciting and romantic to read. Many of the names below have more information about them just ask. Some of these names were innocent of any wrong doings they just were at the wrong place at the right time.

Spencer Kellogg, has been held for the past year as a spy, although not captures as a spy, but as a prisoner of war. He unquestionably acted as a spy in February or March, 1862, but escaped and rejoined his ship, from which he was captured some time during the summer as an ordinary prisoner of war. We claim that no being captured while a spy, or previous to his rejoining our forces, he could not be considered or treated otherwise than as a prisoner of war.

Jose Maria Rivas did during the winter of 1861-62 and the spring of 1862 act as spy against the Federal troops in New Mexico-first for Colonel Baylor, then for General Sibley, and until caught as a spy and guide for Captain Coopwood, all of the Confederate forces. And the said Rivas did during the greater part of the time above mentioned continue to act as a spy and guide adversely to the Federal Government, to which he owed allegiance. He was found guilty and was to be shot to death by a detachment of New Mexico volunteers. However a following report is showing that the sentences was not approved because the accused is not shown to have been within our lines in disguise or by false pretense except by hearsay testimony, and because in his admission that he was a spy he may not have understood the technical term and may have meant no more than that he was a scout of the enemy. He clearly is a prisoner of war.

Miss Fannie Battle, aged nineteen years, of Davidson County, Tenn., arrested on the 7th day of April, A. D. . 1863, by order of Colonel Truesdail, chief of policed Nashville, and brought to Camp Chase on the 15th day of April, 1863, charged with being a spy, with smuggling goods and with getting a forged pass, I have the honor to report that the prisoners denies the all allegation of having been a spy but admits that she is a rebel and she had a forged pass. She further denies that she smuggling goods at the time she was arrested. There can be no doubt from the manner of the prisoner in replying to inquiries that she has been engaged in smuggling. The prisoner is affable and attractive and well qualified by a manners and mind to be influential for evil to the loyal cause. She is a daughter of the rebel General Battle. I recommend that she be exchanged and sent beyond our lines as soon as it may be convenient to our Government.

Miss Harriet Booker, aged twenty - four years, of Davidson County, Tenn., arrested on the 7th day of April, A. D. 1863, by order of Colonel Truesdail, Chief of police at Nashville, and brought to Camp Chase on the 15th day of April, 1863, charged with being a rebel, a spy, with forging a pass and altering the same and with smuggling goods through the lines and conveying letters and information to the enemy, I have the honor to report that the prisoners denies the charge of smuggling, of being a spy or conveying letters to the enemy, but admits herself to be a rebel and to have altered a forged pass, knowing the same to have been forged for the purpose of being fraudulently used. The prisoners is less intelligent than Miss Battle and more ingenuous. She has been obviously under the control of Miss Battle. There can be no doubt as to her active and cordial co - operation in the acts of Miss Battle. If she could be removed from the influence of [that] designing woman she would be harmless. I recommend that she be exchanged and sent beyond our lines, and if convenient and practicable that she be separated from the companionship of Miss Battle.

Abraham Forbes was a citizen of the United States and went to upper Canada prior to the war of 1812, that he joined the troops of the United States and was employed as a spy.

James Rigden states that in September of 1813, he was a sergeant in Colonel Winfield Scott's regiment of artillery stationed at Fort George in upper Canada and was told that the Commanding general wanted a capable man to pass into the enemy's camp four miles a way. He was told if he was successful he would be amply rewarded. Rigden said he would go, he was passed beyound the chain of American sentinels, and the next morning was denounced as a deserter. In character he approched the British outposts in the dark and was received and sent up to headquarters. He had every prospect of being sent to the rear as a deserter and thence succeeding in his perilous mission; but a real deserter from the American army came in and said that Rigden was one of Colonel Scott's most confidential sergents. He was seized as a spy and irond and sent to the dungeon in Quebec. After nine months of being told he would be tried as a spy and executed he was sent to a transport ship called the Bostock then on to England. But they would have to stop at Halifax to join up with the convoy bound for England. Arriving at Halifax, Rigden found there the American cartel called the Perseverance which had brought a number of British prisoners to be exchanged for Americans. Rigden just before sailing of the two vessels, and at the imminent hazard for his life, eluded the vigilance of his guard and got on board the Perseverance. Thus by this successful hazard, Rigden just six weeks from the time he left Quebec was enabled to report himself in person for duty with his company in upper Canada.
