Historical Introduction

"The Holston maRsles appear to have been used locally for tombstones

at an early date. In old churchyards may still be seen tombstones

dating from the early past uf the i8th century convincing proofs of

the enduring qualities of the st.ne. "roughly dressed by hand chisels

from stone that would ncw be classed unsound, they still retain sharp

and clear the tuolmarks of their old manufacturers."

a number of these old tumbst^nes are seen in the old churchyard

HISTORY OF MARdLE INDUSTRY OF EAST TENNESSEE: Page 65

It was the rich chocolate and variegated marbles th,-t first attractedattention, and these soon became popular for interior decoration andfurniture. of late years, the pink and gray marbles are chiefly in demand,owing to their more massive structure, soft colors and more completecrystallzati on , which permits a higher polish.

QUARRYING IN HAWKINS COUNTYThe Hawkins county marbles were the first to attract notice abroad, and

accordingly the earliest systematic operations took place in this county.For thcs account of the beginnings of the Hawkins County operations wej?

are indebted chiefly to SAFFORD

.

The first person to call attention the Marbles cf the Tennessee valleyseems to have been Dr. Troost, the first State Geologist i83i-i840, thoughvery little appears in his reports concerning these deposits. he seems tohave recognized their importance, however, for he took an active part in

organizing the Rogeksville Margle C ompany, the first systematic effort in

THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE MARBLE INDUSTRY IN THE STATE . RhE ROGERSVILLEMarble Company, formed in April 1838, with ORville Rice, as presidentand S. D. Mitchell as secretary, opened a quarry about 7 miles north of

rogersvil e, erecteo a mill and operated on a limited scale for severalyears. Their output, whi;h amounted tc several thousand dollars annually,was distributed mostly in EAST TENNESSEE.

In 1844- the company was scld to Mr. Rjce, who tonti nueo the businesson a moderate scale for many years being still in business, accordingto Safford, in i869. Mr. Rice now cook vigorous steps to extend the useof Tennessee marble, and about this time segan the construction of a lagrebrick tavern on the stage road about 4 M1LES southwest of Rcgersville,

which he called "Marble Hall' 1

, the interior of which was richly andprofusely decorated with marule mantles, shelves, steps and wainscoting.This building, whjch later became a private residence, was re ally, asSAFFORD states, "A Museum of the finest marble East Tennessee affords."For many years it was one .f the noted landmarks of the region, gut wasDESTRjYED BY FIRE A FEW YEARS SINCE. Wh EN THE D4 FFERENT STATES WERE ASKEDTO SUPPLY BLOCKS OF THEIR BEST STONE F.jR THE WASHINGTON MONUMENT IN I 848

,

TWO BLOCKS WERE CONTRIBUTED FROM TENNESSEE. MR. RlCE SENT A BLOCK uF THE"LIGHT MOTTLED STRaWSERHY VARIETY." AS HE TERMED IT, CALLED THE "HAWKINSCGUNTY BL0CK2, bearing the inscription. -'FR^m Hawkins CcuntyTennessee.The other termed the "Tenn State Block" was se.*t t*—*&t by Act of thelegislature. these blocks were floated down the tennessee river toCHATTANOOGA, and thence forwarded by rail to Washington.

In making selection for the interior finishing „f the National Capitol,THE ATTENTION OF THE BUILDING COMMITTEE WaS ATTRACTED TO THESE BLOCKS,and, although they had befcke them numerous speciments from all parts of

the Union, they decided in favor of the East Tennessee marble for theinterior finish of a p* rt of the 8uiloing. soon after an agent was sent bythe Committee to ascertain if the maksle could be obtained in quantity, hi'His report was amply conclusive on this point.

The contract f m this w„rk w*s secured by Hugh Sissons and WilliamDougherty of Philadelphia, Pa. and thereupon they proceeced to open a

quarry on a large scale at a point auout 9 miles southwest of rogersvilleWHERE THE HOLSTON RIVER INTERSECTED THE TwE MARBLE BELT. Th I S QUARRYknown as the "old dougherty quarry." s./etimes called the "nationalQuarry" is located on the north side of the river at the southwestern

extremity of a ridge, at the base of which the marble formation outcrops.The location was well chosen, for the formation here was thick and massiveand the blocks were easily transported to the boats, by \vh i "h they wereconveyed to Chattanooga, and thence by kail to Washington. It is this st

stone from the "Old Dougherty quARRY" that constitutes about half the

ORNAMENTAL MARBLE USED IN THE NATIONAL CaPITOL. "Th E BALUSTRADES, AND

columns of the stairs leading up to the house an'u senate galleries,the walls of the marble room, and other parts of the building, are of

Tennessee maRsle." Segments of columns rejected by the contractor may stillbe seen in the vicinity of the quarry and one that accidentally rolled off

THE BOAT IS SaID TO BE RESTING IN THE BOTTOM OF THE RIVER NEAR THE LOADING P

PLACE.In these early days, the methods of quARRYiNG were of the most

PRIMITIVE CHARACTER. Th E DRILLING WAS BY HAND, THE BLOCK WEDGED OUT ANDroughly dressed in the quarry. no derricks were used, the blocksbeing rolled out of the quarry by man and team labor, loaded on wagons and

hauled by teams to the boat landing.The first superintendent of the Dougherty Quarry was William Cannon.

He was succeeded in i 858 by James Wright, who continued in chargeFOR MANY YEARS, AND WAS CONSIDERED 3Y the quARRYMEN of Tenn as the proneerquARRYMAN. Operations were interrupted by the war between the states, but

WERE RESUMED THEREaFTE AND CONTINUED D jWN UNTIL ABOUT I 89 1 .

The next quarry opened was the "Cave" or "HASSON'S QUARRY", situated abou'

about 4-| miles northeast of the "Dougherty" and a like distance westof Rogersville. This quaRRy was opened by Mr. John HaSSon ab^ut i857,and was the first of the tennessee quarries in which derricks and channelingmachines were used Mr. HaSson having installed here the first channelingmachine brough south of the Potomac river.

The first large contract was for blocks for the Baltimore City Hall,and these like all other marble blocks in those days, had to be hauledTO THE RIVER AND BOATED DOWN TC CHaTTANOjGA. BUT IN THOSE TIMES THEPRICES OBTAINED WEKE qU I IE LARGE, AND A GREAT DEAL OF THE MARBLE FROM THISQUARRY WAS SOLD ABOVE TEN DOLLARS A CUGIC FOOT.

Prominent among the early quaRRymen of Hawkins County was J. C. Stampsof Rogersville, who operated what is known as the "STAMPS STAR QUARRY" loLOCATED ABOUT 2 MILES SOUTHWEST OF THE "D;UGHEiiTY qUARRY. Th I S qUARRY WASOPENED BY A MR. STUART A^OUT 1 874 AND OPERATED BY MR. STAM PS UNTILi887, when it passed under the control of some Chicago parties representedby Dr. Kerder of MojResburg. These operations were continued for four orfive years since which time the quarry has remained idle.

One-half mile northeast of the STaiv'^S STAR Quarry, near the roadLEADING TO RED BRIDGE FERRY, IS THE qUARRY AND MILL OF MR. H B STAiVl PS

WHO, WITH HIS BROTHER, HAS BEEN CONNECTED WITH THE qUARRYING INDUSTRYof Hawkins county for many years . This quARRY Was opened in 1887,AND CONTINUED IN OPERATION IN A MODEKATE WAY UNTIL RE ENTLY, WHEN THEDEMAND FOR THE DARK VARIEGATED MARBLES PRACTICALLY CEASED.

ADJOINING THE STAMPS STAR QUARRY, IS THE EVANS QUARRY, OPERATEDEXTENSIVELY FOR MaNY YEaRS BY THE ,7 H EVANS GARBLE COMPANY, OF BALTIMOREMaryland. With the change in public taste for lighter shades, thiscompany transferred its operations to the kfcioxville district, about 20 yearsago, where it has continued to operate several quarries of popular brandsof gray ano pink marble.

VaRJOUS QUARRIES WERE OPENED ON THE 3ELT NORTHEAST OF THE "OLD DOUGHERTY 11

QUARRY, ABOUT 20 BEING IN OPERATION AT ONE TIME IN THIS DISTRICT, WITH RoROGERSVILLE AS THE LOGICAL CENTER OF THE INDUSTRY. MaNY WERE OF RELATIVELYminor importance, but together they made a notable contribution to theoutput of the district. first, northeast of the "old dougherty"quarry are the "Fudge" a<md "McClure" quarries. Then in order comethe "Pri e". "Kyle" aud Cave quarries. Farther on were a number ofother quarries, whose names are not available.

THE COMPLETION OF THE EaST TENNESSEE, VIRGINIA AND GEORGIA R*lLroad (now the bristol chattanooga branch of the southern railway, ) +tin rogersville was begun before th e c i v i l war and completed soon afterits close. Prior to this, as previously noted, the shipment of themarble was entirely by water to chattanooga and thence by rail, in timesof low water, however, this mode of transportation was often interrupted andand subject to annoying delays and uncertainties, and the coming of theRailroad was welcomed as a hap>-y event.

The marble was k conveyed from the quarries to the rai lroao by wagon

hauled by mule teams, from five to i 2 teams amd sometimes i 5 being requiredfor eah wagon. From the beginning, the contract for hauling the productof the quarries was held by a colored man, Fred Netherland of Rogersvillewhose equipment of mules numbered at one time about i 00

.

The Hawkins county belongs the credit, not only for initiating the

marble quarring industry, 8ut also for the erection of the first marbleMILLS IN THE STA TE . ThE FIRST OF THESE APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN A SMALL STEAM

MILL ERECTED AT RoGEu'S V I LLE . FlNCANClAL EMBRaRRASSMENT, HOWEVER, SOON

OVERTOOK THE ; PRO PB I ETORS , AND ITS OPERATION WAS DESjLTORY AND SOONceased altogether. th e stamps mill, near galbralth springs, waskrsft erected in 1900, and has been in almost continuous operation downdown to 18 1 91 2 when owing to the cessation in the demand for the

Hawkins county variety of marble the mill closed.

The product of this mill, as of all the Hawkins County quarries,was sb used chiefly for ffrnituke manufactur, and as the demand for

marble topped furniture has now ceased there is little or no demand forthis style of marble. one of the chief obstacles to the development of the

marble industry in this county, however, is Want cf shipping facilitieskost of the quarries are from five tj 8 miles from the railroads, and

THE GREAT EXPENSE OF TEAMING THE MARBLE OVERTHE MOUNTAIN ROaDS TO THE RAILRAILWAY, PREVENTS T.IS DISTRICT FROM COMPETING SUCCESSFULLY WITH OTHERSFARTHER SOUTH, WHERE THE QUARRIES ARE LOCATED WITHIN EASY REACH OF THErailroad, given favorable railroad F*ciLiiTE r

, deposits of pink andgray marble, which undoubtedly exist mere, wcuco have been ee» openedBUT UNDER PRESENT CONDITIONS THESE A«E N -T LIKELY TO BE DEVELOPED.

OPERATIONS IN THE KNOX VI L_E DISTRICTIn i852 Mr. James Sloan opene© a quarry on a ridoe ab^ut 2 mi

MILES NORTH OF KNOXVIU-E, NEAR THE EaST TE..NESSEE AND VIRGINIA (NOW THES.uthern) RailR-ad. Only the dark or variegated marble was taken ut atthat time. of special interest is the statement made by saff0rd(Geology of Tennessee i869, page 23?) f otm:."fe.

THAT IT WAS FROM THIS QUARRY THAT " M.ST CF THE MaRBLE IN THE STATECapitol at Nashville was taken." This quarry also furnished some cf

John Williams opened what is kn,.wn as the Williams or M Mullen quarry

ABcUT TWO MILES EAST OF KNOXVILLE. FROM THIS QUARRY CAME THE STONE

USED IN THE 8UIL0ING OF THE MEMPHIS CUSTOM HOUSE. Th I S PROPERTY LATER

PASSED INTO THE POSSESSION OF THE TENNESSEE PRODUCERS MaRBLE COMPANY,

by w^gm it is still operated.

/ When in i872 the united States Government undertook the

erection f the knoxvil e custom house and post of fl e, it was descided

in construct t» it of marble from the vicinity. a quarry was cepened

near the forks of the river, a small mill erected, and here allfc the

marble used in the building was quarried and Sawed. Later Mr. George WRoss, who was the paymeste^ of the building, in partnership with Mr.

William Patrick, of St. L^uis organized the Kijcxville, Marble Company

AND PURCH ASEDTH'E SITE OF THE GOVERNMENT QUARRY AND MILL. OTHFR MaRBLE LA

were added from time to time, and the business was pushed forward with

energy. Agents were appointed in the northern cities, which Was a

NEW THING IN THE TeNN MaRBLE BUSINESS, ANO RESULTED IN MAKING LARGE

DEMANDS FOR THE COMPANY'S PRODUCT. DuR I NG THE l2 OR |5 YEARS THE QUARRY

WAS WORKED, IT PRODUCED A GREAT DEAL OF MARBLE, BOTH GRAY AND LIGHT-PI I

PINK VARIETIES, AND AMONG OTHER BUSILDINGS FURNISHED, WERE AB-UT I 00

CAR LOAOS FOR THE NEW YORK STATE STATE 3aPIToL AT ALBANY. Th E QUARRY

WAS WORKED BACKWARD FROM THE RIVER 8ANK FDR SEVERAL HUNDRED FEET, Afco- T

THE EXCAVATION WAS MALE TO A DEPTH OF 25 FEET I BELOW THE LEVEL OF THi

THE RIVER. THE MARbLE WAS ALL SEimT D JWN THE RIVER ON FLAT

BOATS TO KNOXVILLE AND THENCE FORWARDED BY RAIL. AT THE DEATH OF MR.

ROSS, WHICH OCCURRED IN JaN I 89 1 HE STIPULATED THAT THE QUARRY

PROPERTIES SHOULD aLWaSY REMAIN IN THE FAMILY AS HE REGARDED THEM

LIKELY TO INCREASE IN VALUE.

0"E OF THE PIONEERS CF THE MARBLE INDUSTRY IN T4E VICINITY OF

KNOXVILLE WAS THE FIRM OF J J CRAIG 4 G£MP*NV, WHO GPEHED A QUARRY

EAST OF THE CITY IN l878. Th E FIRM WAS COMPOSED OF CCL J.J CRAIG,

W B McMULLEN AND J M ED I NGTON . OTHER PROPERTIES HAVING BEEN ACQUIRED

THE COMPANY BECAME INCORPORATED AS THE GREAT SOUTHERN MaRBLE

Company in i884.In 1881, Ur . John M Ross, a son of George *" Ross, opened what

IS KNOWN AS THE "ISLAND HOME QUARRY," ON THE SOUTH SIOE OF THE RIVER

ABOUT ONE MILE ABOVE THE COUNTY BRIDGE. Th E MILL OF THE KNOXVILLE

Marble Company of wh i h company Mr. Ross +n2- is the president near

the quarry, close to the riverside.

The Republic Marble Company x was organized in June 1886

and began operating a quarry located near concord, |8 miles southwest

of knoxville. in 1392 a quarry was opened a^cut x" one mile worth

of the village of luttrell a" d a part of the cghi'-a'^y's plant was

removed t this place, though operations were continued at the

Concord quarry f_r several years but were finally discontinued there.

a steam mill was erected near the luttrell quarry a few years later

and both quarry and mill have oeen openerated continuously tu the

present time.( i wish to say here that it was from luttrell quary

SOMEWHERE THAT MY FATHER Ja.V.ES ABRAHAM WaLKER GOT THE SToNE FROM

which he carved the ctatue cf NANCY WARD), The is a large book__ so I will not quote further from it.

In 1 892, the Republic Marole S-«M8,*m**N¥-

Company and the Ross Garble Company consolidated under the name of

the Ross anu Republic Marble Coma-^y, whi:h company now operates the

luttrell property; and also quarry and mill located on the m6th—SOUTH SIDE OF THE Te.NEESSEE RIVER OPPOSITE THE FoRKS, PREVIOUSLYOPERATEJ BY THE K.SS MaROLE C^MPa.»YU
