Jefferson Finis Davis (June 3, 1807/1808 – December 6, 1889) was an American soldier and politician who was the President of the Confederate States of America during the American Civil War (1861–1865). He took personal charge of the Confederate war plans but was unable to find a strategy to defeat the more populous and industrialized Union. His diplomatic efforts failed to gain recognition from any foreign country. At home he paid little attention to the collapsing Confederate economy; the government printed more and more paper money to cover the war's expenses, leading to runaway inflation and devaluation of the Confederate dollar.
Davis was born in Kentucky to a moderately prosperous farmer, and grew up on his brother's large cotton plantations in Mississippi and Louisiana. His brother Joseph secured his appointment to the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. After he graduated, Jefferson served six years as a lieutenant in the United States Army. He fought in the Mexican–American War (1846–1848), as the colonel of a volunteer regiment. He served as the U.S. Secretary of War from 1853 to 1857 under President Franklin Pierce, and as a Democratic U.S. senator from Mississippi. An operator of a large cotton plantation in Mississippi with over 100 slaves, he was well known for his support of slavery during his time in the Senate. Although Davis argued against secession, he believed that each state was sovereign and had an unquestionable right to secede from the Union.
Davis lost his first wife, Sarah Knox Taylor, to malaria after three months of marriage, and the disease almost killed him as well. He suffered from ill health for much of his life. He had six children with his second, younger wife, Varina Howell Davis, but only two survived him.
Many historians attribute the Confederacy's weaknesses to the leadership of President Davis.[3] His preoccupation with detail, reluctance to delegate responsibility, lack of popular appeal, feuds with powerful state governors, favoritism toward old friends, inability to get along with people who disagreed with him, neglect of civil matters in favor of military ones, and resistance to public opinion all worked against him.[4][5] Historians agree he was a much less effective war leader than his Union counterpart Abraham Lincoln.
After Davis was captured in 1865, he was accused of treason but was not tried and was released after two years. While not disgraced, Davis had been displaced in ex-Confederate affection after the war by his leading general, Robert E. Lee. Davis wrote a memoir entitled The Rise and Fall of the Confederate Government, which he completed in 1881. By the late 1880s, he began to encourage reconciliation, telling Southerners to be loyal to the Union. Ex-Confederates came to appreciate his role as a Southern patriot and he became a hero of the Lost Cause in the New South.[6]
Some portions of his legacy were created not as memorials, but as contemporary recognition of his service at the time. Fort Davis National Historic Site began as a frontier military post in October 1854, in the mountains of western Texas. It was named after then-United States Secretary of War Jefferson Davis. That fort gave its name to the surrounding Davis Mountains range, and the town of Fort Davis. The surrounding area was designated Jeff Davis County in 1887, with the town of Fort Davis as the county seat.
Numerous memorials to Jefferson Davis were created. The largest is the 351-foot (107 m) concrete obelisk located at the Jefferson Davis State Historic Site in Fairview, Kentucky, marking his birthplace. Construction of the monument began in 1917 and finished in 1924 at a cost of about $200,000.[10]
In 1913, the United Daughters of the Confederacy conceived the Jefferson Davis Memorial Highway, a transcontinental highway to be built through the South.[163][164] Portions of the highway's route in Virginia, Alabama and other states still bear the name of Jefferson Davis.[163]
Davis appeared on several postage stamps issued by the Confederacy, including its first postage stamp (issued in 1861). In 1995, his portrait appeared on a United States postage stamp, part of a series of 20 stamps commemorating the 130th anniversary of end of the Civil War.[165][166] Davis was also celebrated on the 6-cent Stone Mountain Memorial Carving commemorative on September 19, 1970, at Stone Mountain, Georgia. The stamp portrayed Jefferson Davis, Robert E. Lee and Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson on horseback. It depicts a replica of the actual memorial, carved into the side of Stone Mountain at 400 feet (120 m) above ground level, the largest high relief sculpture in the world.

Kentucky's Other President: Jefferson Davis
Both Civil War presidents were born in Kentucky. Jefferson Davis, a soldier and statesman who went on to become the president of the Confederate States of America, was born just eight months earlier than Lincoln, on June 3, 1808, and only 100 miles away, in Fairview, here in Christian County. Historians James Klotter and James Ramage offer their views on the similarities and differences between Lincoln and Davis.
Like Lincoln's family, Davis's family left Kentucky during his youth. Davis's family moved first to Louisiana and then to Mississippi. Davis had years of formal schooling Lincoln never had. He returned to Kentucky for portions of his schooling. He was educated at a Catholic school in Springfield—where he was the only Protestant student—and at Transylvania University in Lexington, a training ground for many prominent politicians of the day.
Lincoln married a Kentucky native, Mary Todd of Lexington. Davis's first wife, Sarah, had Kentucky ties: She was Zachary Taylor's daughter. It was an ill-fated union. Taylor opposed the marriage; and Sarah died three months after the wedding of malaria, in 1835. It would be a decade before Davis married again.
In Illinois, Lincoln was defeated by Stephen Douglas in his run for the U.S. Senate. In Mississippi, Davis was twice elected U.S. senator: He was appointed to a vacant seat in 1847, then won election and held the seat until 1851. He returned to the Senate a second time, in 1857, resigning in 1861 when Mississippi seceded from the Union.
Later in his life, Davis always identified himself as a Kentuckian. He is remembered here with a 351-foot-tall concrete obelisk located at the Jefferson Davis State Historic Site in Fairview. Dedicated in 1924, it's the fifth tallest monument in America.

A video tour including a narration of the Jefferson Davis capture site in Irwinvile, GA. The place where the civil war ended. For four years, Jefferson Davis had led the Confederate States of America as its President. As the Civil War drew to a close, Davis, fled Richmond, Virginia with his cabinet in early April, 1865 and began a trek southward with federal troops in pursuit; while still weighing the merits of forming a government in exile. Reaching the farming community of Irwinville, GA, on the evening of May 9th, the remaining hopefuls, still assuming that they were a step ahead of their pursuers, set up camp near a creek bed.

Plot: Set in an contemporary alternative world where the Confederate States of America managed to win the American Civil War, a British film documentary examines the history of this nation. Beginning with its conquest of the northern states, the film covers the history of this state where racial enslavement became triumphant and the nation carried sinister designs of conquest. Interspersed throughout are various TV commercials of products of a virulent racist nature as well as public service announcements promoting this tyranny. Only at the end do you learn that there is less wholly imagined material in the film than you might suspect.

Quotes:
[first lines]::[commercial for Confederate Family Insurance]::Confederate Family Insurance Speaker: A man fills many roles in his lifetime: provider, protector, master of the house. As a father you have a vital role in your family's life. They depend on you to be there. We help to make sure you can fulfill that promise, because [pause] no matter what they call you [pause] at the end of the day [pause] you know you're just [pause] dad. Confederate Family Insurance - for over one hundred years. Protecting a people [pan past the Confederate Family to a slave trimming their hedges] and their property.[last lines]::Children: I pledge allegiance to the flag of the Confederate States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all white people, Amen.
Patricia Johnson: [In describing Abraham Lincoln and Harriet Tubman's escape from the Confederate Army] She chose to disguise President Lincoln in blackface and travel with him along one of the many secret slave routes. When Lincoln scoffed at the plan, Tubman, never one to mince words, reminded him of the huge bounty on his head. She said simply, 'We're both niggers now, Mr. President.'
Old Abraham Lincoln: [In his final interview in Montreal in June 1905, shortly before his death] I failed to see it. The abolitionists understood what consequences would be. They knew it was always about the negro, but I was blind. Now I see. I see what our once great country has become. I only wish that I had truly cared for the negro. Truly cared for his freedom, for his equality. I used him; now I am used. Now, I too am a negro without a country. I pray that someday, the colored people of Confederate America will be free. A nation stained with the blood of injustice cannot stand. I only regret that... I shall not live to see it fall.
Patricia Johnson: [In explaining the fate of mixed-race slave holders] Mixed-race slave holders were sold right along with their full-blooded slaves. As one slave put it: 'Light, bright, damn sure ain't white.'
Luis Arroyo: [speaking in Spanish] My parents fled Southern America when I was young. However, my most vivid memory is the food. They believed in controlling the stomach as well as the mind. For breakfast, the Latin-American diet became grits and sausage. For dinner, hamhocks and collared greens. A sandwich for lunch... a pickled pig's foot. In school, the headmaster forced me to eat a chitterling. I thought I was going to die.

Jefferson Davis: I must pronounce our solemn farewell. Under these circumstances, of course, my functions - and those of my colleagues - terminate here. We but tread in the path of our fathers when we proclaim our independence - and take the hazard, putting our trust in God, and in our own firm hearts - and strong arms - we will vindicate the right as best we may. [looking slowly around the room] I see now around me some with whom I have served long; there have been points of collision. For whatever offense I have given, I ask forgiveness. Of whatever of offense there has been to me, I leave here. I carry with me no hostile remembrance. I go hence unencumbered of the remembrance of injury received, and having discharged the duty of making the only reparation in my power for any injury offered.

Jefferson Finis Davis (June 3, 1807/1808 – December 6, 1889) was an American soldier and politician who was the President of the Confederate States of America during the American Civil War (1861–1865). He took personal charge of the Confederate war plans but was unable to find a strategy to defeat the more populous and industrialized Union. His diplomatic efforts failed to gain recognition from any foreign country. At home he paid little attention to the collapsing Confederate economy; the government printed more and more paper money to cover the war's expenses, leading to runaway inflation and devaluation of the Confederate dollar.
Davis was born in Kentucky to a moderately prosperous farmer, and grew up on his brother's large cotton plantations in Mississippi and Louisiana. His brother Joseph secured his appointment to the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. After he graduated, Jefferson served six years as a lieutenant in the United States Army. He fought in the Mexican–American War (1846–1848), as the colonel of a volunteer regiment. He served as the U.S. Secretary of War from 1853 to 1857 under President Franklin Pierce, and as a Democratic U.S. senator from Mississippi. An operator of a large cotton plantation in Mississippi with over 100 slaves, he was well known for his support of slavery during his time in the Senate. Although Davis argued against secession, he believed that each state was sovereign and had an unquestionable right to secede from the Union.
Davis lost his first wife, Sarah Knox Taylor, to malaria after three months of marriage, and the disease almost killed him as well. He suffered from ill health for much of his life. He had six children with his second, younger wife, Varina Howell Davis, but only two survived him.
Many historians attribute the Confederacy's weaknesses to the leadership of President Davis.[3] His preoccupation with detail, reluctance to delegate responsibility, lack of popular appeal, feuds with powerful state governors, favoritism toward old friends, inability to get along with people who disagreed with him, neglect of civil matters in favor of military ones, and resistance to public opinion all worked against him.[4][5] Historians agree he was a much less effective war leader than his Union counterpart Abraham Lincoln.
After Davis was captured in 1865, he was accused of treason but was not tried and was released after two years. While not disgraced, Davis had been displaced in ex-Confederate affection after the war by his leading general, Robert E. Lee. Davis wrote a memoir entitled The Rise and Fall of the Confederate Government, which he completed in 1881. By the late 1880s, he began to encourage reconciliation, telling Southerners to be loyal to the Union. Ex-Confederates came to appreciate his role as a Southern patriot and he became a hero of the Lost Cause in the New South.[6]
Some portions of his legacy were created not as memorials, but as contemporary recognition of his service at the time. Fort Davis National Historic Site began as a frontier military post in October 1854, in the mountains of western Texas. It was named after then-United States Secretary of War Jefferson Davis. That fort gave its name to the surrounding Davis Mountains range, and the town of Fort Davis. The surrounding area was designated Jeff Davis County in 1887, with the town of Fort Davis as the county seat.
Numerous memorials to Jefferson Davis were created. The largest is the 351-foot (107 m) concrete obelisk located at the Jefferson Davis State Historic Site in Fairview, Kentucky, marking his birthplace. Construction of the monument began in 1917 and finished in 1924 at a cost of about $200,000.[10]
In 1913, the United Daughters of the Confederacy conceived the Jefferson Davis Memorial Highway, a transcontinental highway to be built through the South.[163][164] Portions of the highway's route in Virginia, Alabama and other states still bear the name of Jefferson Davis.[163]
Davis appeared on several postage stamps issued by the Confederacy, including its first postage stamp (issued in 1861). In 1995, his portrait appeared on a United States postage stamp, part of a series of 20 stamps commemorating the 130th anniversary of end of the Civil War.[165][166] Davis was also celebrated on the 6-cent Stone Mountain Memorial Carving commemorative on September 19, 1970, at Stone Mountain, Georgia. The stamp portrayed Jefferson Davis, Robert E. Lee and Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson on horseback. It depicts a replica of the actual memorial, carved into the side of Stone Mountain at 400 feet (120 m) above ground level, the largest high relief sculpture in the world.

Fort Davis National Historic Site began as a frontier military post in October 1854, in the mountains of western Texas. It was named after then-United States Secretary of War Jefferson Davis. That fort gave its name to the surrounding Davis Mountains range, and the town of Fort Davis. The surrounding area was designated Jeff Davis County in 1887, with the town of Fort Davis as the county seat.
Numerous memorials to Jefferson Davis were created. The largest is the 351-foot (107 m) concrete obelisk located at the Jefferson Davis State Historic Site in Fairview, Kentucky, marking his birthplace. Construction of the monument began in 1917 and finished in 1924 at a cost of about $200,000.[10]
In 1913, the United Daughters of the Confederacy conceived the Jefferson Davis Memorial Highway, a transcontinental highway to be built through the South.[163][164] Portions of the highway's route in Virginia, Alabama and other states still bear the name of Jefferson Davis.[163]
Davis appeared on several postage stamps issued by the Confederacy, including its first postage stamp (issued in 1861). In 1995, his portrait appeared on a United States postage stamp, part of a series of 20 stamps commemorating the 130th anniversary of end of the Civil War.[165][166] Davis was also celebrated on the 6-cent Stone Mountain Memorial Carving commemorative on September 19, 1970, at Stone Mountain, Georgia. The stamp portrayed Jefferson Davis, Robert E. Lee and Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson on horseback. It depicts a replica of the actual memorial, carved into the side of Stone Mountain at 400 feet (120 m) above ground level, the largest high relief sculpture in the world.

Kentucky's Other President: Jefferson Davis
Both Civil War presidents were born in Kentucky. Jefferson Davis, a soldier and statesman who went on to become the president of the Confederate States of America, was born just eight months earlier than Lincoln, on June 3, 1808, and only 100 miles away, in Fairview, here in Christian County. Historians James Klotter and James Ramage offer their views on the similarities and differences between Lincoln and Davis.
Like Lincoln's family, Davis's family left Kentucky during his youth. Davis's family moved first to Louisiana and then to Mississippi. Davis had years of formal schooling Lincoln never had. He returned to Kentucky for portions of his schooling. He was educated at a Catholic school in Springfield—where he was the only Protestant student—and at Transylvania University in Lexington, a training ground for many prominent politicians of the day.
Lincoln married a Kentucky native, Mary Todd of Lexington. Davis's first wife, Sarah, had Kentucky ties: She was Zachary Taylor's daughter. It was an ill-fated union. Taylor opposed the marriage; and Sarah died three months after the wedding of malaria, in 1835. It would be a decade before Davis married again.
In Illinois, Lincoln was defeated by Stephen Douglas in his run for the U.S. Senate. In Mississippi, Davis was twice elected U.S. senator: He was appointed to a vacant seat in 1847, then won election and held the seat until 1851. He returned to the Senate a second time, in 1857, resigning in 1861 when Mississippi seceded from the Union.
Later in his life, Davis always identified himself as a Kentuckian. He is remembered here with a 351-foot-tall concrete obelisk located at the Jefferson Davis State Historic Site in Fairview. Dedicated in 1924, it's the fifth tallest monument in America.

A video tour including a narration of the Jefferson Davis capture site in Irwinvile, GA.
The place where the civil war ended.
For four years, Jefferson Davis had led the Confederate States of America as its President. As the Civil War drew to a close, Davis, fled Richmond, Virginia with his cabinet in early April, 1865 and began a trek southward with federal troops in pursuit; while still weighing the merits of forming a government in exile.
Reaching the farming community of Irwinville, GA, on the evening of May 9th, the remaining hopefuls, still assuming that they were a step ahead of their pursuers, set up camp near a creek bed.
Early the next morning the camp was awakened by a pop of gunfire and within minutes was surrounded by members of the First Wisconsin and Fourth Michigan cavalries. A member of the Michigan detail quickly apprehended Davis.
It was on that spring morning, with his arrest, the government of the Confederate States of America ceased to exist.
By the 24th of May, Davis would be indicted for treason against the United States government imprisoned at Fort Monroe in Virginia, until May 1867 when he was released on bail.
Today, a monument marks the spot where Davis was arrested. Visitors can tour the 13-acre historic site that includes a museum built by the WPA in 1939, a quarter mile nature trail, picnic tables and a group shelter. The site staff offers guided tours of the capture site along with special presentations by site volunteers and period re-enactors
Davis would spend his remaining years in Biloxi, Mississippi, Never asking for, nor was he granted, a pardon for his actions. However, in a speech at Mississippi City, Mississippi, he spoke: "The past is dead; let it bury its dead, its hopes and its aspirations. Before you lies the future, a future full of golden promise, a future of expanding national glory, before which all the world shall stand amazed.
There is no documentation to believe that Davis or any of his direct descendents ever returned to the site of capture in Irwinville, Georgia.
Videographers note: This is truly where the Civil War Ended. I've never found an article that documents the war, that doesn't include Irwinville, GA. The history is preserved today by the State of Georgia and countless numbers of people. A priceless piece of history is preserved only several miles from Interstate 75 in South-Central Georgia.
