Americans: Volume III
Crittenden, John Jordan
Crittenden, George Bibb, soldier, was born in Russellville, Ky..
March 20, 1812; son of the Hon. John Jordan and Sallie 0. (Lee)
Crittenden. He was graduated at the U.S. military academy in
1832, and resigned his commission, April 30, 1833. He became one
of the Texas revolutionists in 1835 and with his company was
captured on the Rio Grande and carried to the City of Mexico,
where as a prisoner of war he was released through the
intervention of John Forsyth, secretary of state. He served
through the Mexican war as captain of mounted rifles and for
gallantry at Contreras and Cherubusco was promoted major and was
in the van of the American army as it entered the City of
Mexico. After the close of the war he was made major of mounted
rifles, being promoted lieuteuant-colonel in 1856. He resigned
from the army of the United States in 1861 and joined that of
the Confederacy, receiving the commission of brigadier-general
and shortly afterward that of major-general. In November, 1861,
he commanded southeast Kentucky and a part of east Tennessee. At
Mill Spring, on Jan. 19, 1862, he was defeated by General Thomas
and lost his artillery, escaping across the Cumberland with a
remnant of his army. He was severely censured for the action and
was kept under arrest until November, 1862, when he resigned his
commission but continued to serve the Confederacy as a
volunteer. He was state librarian at Frankfort, Ky., 1867-71. He
died in Danville, Ky., Nov. 27, 1880.

Source: General Officers of the Confederate States of America
Major-General George Bibb Crittenden was born in Russellville,
Logan county, Ky., March 20, 1821, and was the oldest son of J.
J. Crittenden. He was graduated at West Point in 1832, but
resigned from the army the next year.
In 1835 he went to Texas and volunteered in the struggle for
independence; was taken prisoner, and held by the Mexicans for
nearly a year. At one time he generously took the place of a
comrade who had drawn the fatal black bean when their captors
had for some reason determined to adopt summary measures.
After his release he returned to his native State and devoted
himself for ten years to the practice of law. At the beginning
of the Mexican war in 1846 he entered the army as captain of
mounted rifles, was brevetted major for gallantry at Contreras
end Churubusco, and on September 14, 1847;, was among the first
to enter the city of Mexico, where he had once suffered such
disagreeable captivity.
Continuing in the service, most of his time was spent upon the
frontier. In 1848 he was commissioned major and in 1856
lieutenant- colonel. In the great sectional quarrel his
sympathies were with the South.
Accordingly he resigned his commission in the United States army
and was appointed colonel of infantry in that of the Confederate
States, to date March 16, 1861. On August 15th he was promoted
to brigadier-general, and on November 9th to
major-general in the provisional army.
During the greater part of June, 1861, he had command of the
Trans-Alleghany department. When commissioned major-general he
was assigned to command of the district of East Tennessee and
also placed in charge of military operations in Kentucky.
Gen. Geo. H. Thomas early in January began an advance toward
East Tennessee, and on the 17th reached Logan's Cross-roads, ten
miles north of the intrenched camp of Gen. Felix K. Zollicoffer.
A few days before this General Crittenden had arrived at
Zollicoffer's camp and assumed command.
Hearing of the arrival of Thomas, Crittenden determined to
attack that general before all his forces should come up. With
this purpose in view he advanced, and on January 19th made the
attack. But Thomas was ready with more men than Crittenden had.
The result was the disastrous defeat at Mill Springs, or Logan's
Crossroads, in which General Zollicoffer was killed.
For the nanagement of this affair General Crittenden was
censured and kept under arrest for several months. If General
Crittenden really deserved censure it was for relying too much
upon the reports brought to him as to the actual strength of the
enemy and condition of Fishing creek which, it was said, was so
swollen as to delay the reinforcement of the enemy. At a council
of war held the evening before the battle, it was unanimously
decided that an attack ought to be made.
Brig;-Gen. Wm. H. Carroll, whose brigade did some of the best
fighting of the day, in his report of the battle made to General
Crittenden says: "I cannot close my report without expressing
the high appreciation both by myself and my officers for the
personal courage and skill evinced both by yourself and staff
during the entire engagement; and however much I may regret the
unfortunate disaster which befell us, I
feel conscious that it resulted from no want of gallantry and
military tact on the part of the commanding general."
General Crittenden resigned after this affair, but showed his
patriotic devotion to the South by serving without rank on the
staff of Gen. J. S. Williams. Gen. Basil Duke, in an article on
John Morgan in 1864, makes mention of Crittenden as in southwest
Virginia assisting Morgan in defeating a raiding force led by
General Averell.
In his rank as colonel, C. S. A., he was put in temporary
command of the department of Western Virginia and East
Tennessee, May 31, 1864.
After the war he returned to Kentucky and lived mostly at
Frankfort. He was State librarian from 1867 to 1871. He died at
Danville, Ky., November 27, 1880. General Crittenden had a
brother, Thomas L., who sided with the Union, and rose to
distinction as a major-general.
