Lloyd Tilghman House and Civil War Museum的点评

点评：The theme of the Lloyd Tilghman House and Civil War Museum in Paducah, Kentucky, is "Dixie Forever" and it only proves that, in many parts of the Old South, the Civil War still is being fought, that "The Cause" will never be forgotten. Located at 631 Kentucky Avenue, at South 7th Street, the two-story house was built in 1852 in the Greek Revival style by Robert Woolfolk in behalf of Tilghman, who rented the house but never owned it. A railroad civil engineer, Tilghmam spent most of his time working on a railroad in Panama while his wife and seven children lived in the house. In 1861, Tilghman, a West Point graduate, joined the Confederate Army as the Colonel of a Kentucky regiment, rose to the rank of Brigadier General, surrendered Fort Henry on the Tennessee River to Union General Ulysses S. Grant in 1862, then was killed in the Battle of Champion Hill during the Vicksburg campaign in 1863. During the war, Paducah and the Tilghman house became a flashpoint. After Tilghman left, Woolfolk moved into the house, flew a Confederate flag over the house, sparked a riot and was banished to Canada in 1864. Paducah was a supply base for the Union Army. The house was saved from demolition and opened as a museum in 1987. Operated by the Sons of Confederate Veterans and the Tilghman Heritage Foundation, it focuses on the Western theater of the Civil War in general and Western Kentucky's role in the war in particular. Open to the public from noon to 4 Wednesday through Saturday, it features an extensive collection of uniforms, weapons, photographs, maps, documents, period furnishings and Civil War artifacts. Interestingly, it details Tilghman's disgrace at Fort Henry and his gallantry before his death at Champion Hill. A statue of Tilghman stands in nearby Langdon Park. The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.

翻译：位于肯塔基州帕杜卡的劳埃德·蒂尔曼故居及内战博物馆的主题为“南方永存”，这也充分证明：在南方旧地的许多地区，内战的纷争仍在继续，“南方事业”也永远不会被遗忘。这座两层楼高的建筑坐落于肯塔基大道631号、南第七街旁，由罗伯特·伍尔福克于1852年以希腊复兴风格为蒂尔曼建造。蒂尔曼只是租下了这栋房子，而并非其所有者。他是一名铁路土木工程师。蒂尔格曼大部分时间都在巴拿马修建铁路，而他的妻子和七个孩子则住在家里。1861年，西点军校毕业的蒂尔格曼以肯塔基州某团上校的身份加入了南方邦联军队，后来晋升为准将。1862年，他下令将田纳西河上的亨利堡拱手交给北方联邦军统帅尤利西斯·S·格兰特。1863年，在维克斯堡战役期间，他在冠军山战役中阵亡。战争期间，帕杜卡与蒂尔曼故居成了冲突的焦点。蒂尔曼离开后，伍尔福克搬进了那栋房子，并在房顶上升起了南方邦联旗帜，从而引发了骚乱；他于1864年被流放到加拿大。帕杜卡当时是联邦军的补给基地。这座房子幸免于拆除的命运，并于1987年作为博物馆对外开放。如今，它由南方邦联退伍军人协会与蒂尔曼遗产基金会共同管理。该博物馆主要介绍美国南北战争中的西部战区，尤其是肯塔基州西部在战争中所发挥的作用。每周三至周六中午12点至下午4点向公众开放，馆内陈列着大量军服、武器、照片、地图、文献、当时的家具以及南北战争时期的各类文物。有趣的是，展览还详细讲述了蒂尔格曼在亨利堡蒙受耻辱的经历，以及他在钱皮恩山战役中表现出的英勇行为。在附近的兰登公园里还矗立着一尊蒂尔格曼的雕像。这座房屋于1998年被列入美国国家历史名胜名录。
