Description Of The Maria Florilla Flint Hamblen Papers

From the Guide to Civil War Manuscript Collections at the Arkansas State Archives:

"Maria Florilla Flint Hamblen papers, 1821-1908... Maria Florilla Flint Hamblen was born in 1838 in Michigan. In 1850, the family moved to New York, and beginning in 1855, Maria attended Genesee College studying music and foreign languages."

My Picture Of Fort Jackson, Louisiana, Historical Marker

"After teaching for a time, she visited her brother in New Orleans in December of 1865. He had been assigned to Forts Jackson and St. Phillips, under the command of Lieutenant Colonel Samuel Hamblen. Maria married Hamblen in 1866. The couple moved to New York, then to Iowa, and then to Florida, where Samuel worked as a government surveyor. Then, in the late 1870s, they moved to Hot Springs. Maria taught music and was active in the Methodist Episcopal Church, Woman’s Christian Temperance Union, and Woman’s Christian Library Association. This collection includes an autobiography, letterbook, and scrapbook."

Service At Fort Smith

"His [Clement Alexander Finley's] service during the forty-three years that elapsed before he was appointed surgeon general was naturally varied and comprehensive. From the time of his appointment to August 1822 he served with his regiment in Louisiana. Then he had a two years tour of duty to May 1824 at Fort Smith in the malarious wilds of Arkansas." [Source]

Letters Conveyed To Fort Smith

Fort Smith, Arkansas

A little before sunset we arrived at a settlement on the stream called Short Mountain Bayou. The little cabin we found occupied by two soldiers belonging to the garrison who were on their return from the settlement at Cadron whither they had been sent with letters on our arrival at Fort Smith, Cadron being the nearest post-town. We had expected letters from our friends by the return of the express but were disappointed. The soldiers informed us, that the house in which they had quartered themselves for the night had been for a week or two deserted, since its proprietor had died, and his wife, who was sick, had been removed to the nearest settlement.The place is called the Short Mountain Settlement.
