🕵️‍♂️ Trivia Tuesday! 🕵️‍♂️

Did you know that General P. G. T. Beauregard once believed a hot air balloon was floating over Corinth during the Siege of Corinth?

During the Civil War, balloons were used for spying—but mostly in the Eastern Theater. Rumors reached Beauregard in late May 1862 that Union forces were operating a balloon here in Corinth.

He even wrote:
“Small details must be kept in or about old camps to keep up usual fires on account of balloon…”

But here’s the twist: there was no balloon over Corinth.

Instead, Major General John Pope had constructed a 90‑foot observation tower to watch Confederate positions—completed around May 21, 1862. A tower, not a balloon, was the source of all the concern!

Join us next week for another Trivia Tuesday as we uncover more surprising Civil War stories from Corinth.

29 APRIL 1862 - Siege of Corinth Begins

Union troops began a month-long siege of Corinth, Mississippi, an important Confederate railway hub.

Union forces under the overall command of Major General Henry W. Halleck engaged in a month-long siege of the city, whose Confederate forces were commanded by General P.G.T. Beauregard. The siege resulted in the capture of the town by Federal forces on 30 May 1862.
