Allen may be been the uncle of John and Oscar Cliett, the brother of their mother, Mary Ann Allen Cliett. There are a number of other Allen family members buried at the Cliett Cemetery. Born in 1832, GW Allen was 29 years old when the war began. He enlisted in April 1861, and was elected Sgt., then Lieutenant. He was wounded in the right foot at Second Manassas, VA, resulting in an amputation on August 30, 1862. He resigned due to disability. He died in Feb. 1885. His widow applied for a widow’s pension in 1911. Most likely, she is one of the Allen graves at Cliett Cemetery. George W. Allen was a school teacher according to the history of Powersville below. http://scvcamp1399.org/docs/cliett-cemetery-listing.txt Margaret A. "Maggie" Allen ============================================================== 3rd Regiment, Georgia Infantry 3rd Infantry Regiment was assembled at Augusta, Georgia, in April, 1861. Its companies were recruited in the counties of Clarke, Burke, Dawson, Dade, Madison, Baldwin, and Oconee. This regiment served in the Departments of Norfolk, North Carolina, and Middle and Eastern Florida before being assigned to the Army of Northern Virginia. Here it was under the command of General A.R. Wright and after November, 1864, General Sorrell. It participated in the difficult campaigns of the army from Seven Pines to Cold Harbor, then was involved in the Petersburg siege north and south of the James River and various conflicts around Appomattox. The unit reported 25 killed, 110 wounded, and 22 missing at Malvern Hill and had 10 killed and 129 wounded at Chancellorsville. It lost more than forty-five percent of the 441 engaged at Gettysburg, and there were 75 casualties at Manassas Gap. The 3rd surrendered in April, 1865, with 12 officers and 236 men. Its commanders were Colonels Edward J. Walker and Ambrose R. Wright; Lieutenant Colonels A.B. Montgomery, R.B. Nisbet, James S. Reid, and Claiborne Snead; and Majors George E. Hayes, John F. Jones, Augustus H. Lee, and John R. Sturges. First 12 MONTHS: http://www.3gvi.org/ga3hist3.html http://www.3gvi.org/ga3hist1.html ============================================================ About Powersville, GA (Peach County) http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~gapchs/towns.htm Powersville by Cecil D. Cliett The town of Powersville is located 21 miles from Macon and was first named Station #1 when the Southwestern Railroad was being built from Macon to Albany in the year 1853-53. Then a more suitable name was suggested by Mr. Alfred M. Cliett, for it to be named for Col. Virgil Powers, who was at that time a civil engineer for the Southwestern Railroad Company. Powersville was an important wood and water station; water from Mule Creek and wood was cut and sold to the railroad company by Mr. Buck Warren. Sometime later the railroad became the Central of Georgia Railroad and that company spent a considerable amount of money to provide a more convenient way of getting water to the engine than by "bucket brigade". The Central provided a steam pump and two huge water towers. Tom Cliett was pumper for the Center for years, until the tanks were not longer in use. This improvement rated Powersville the best wood and water station in the State at that time. The coming of the railroad brought about possibilities by the best judges that Powersville was one of the best locations for a cotton factory in Southwest Georgia. The earliest legal council in the area was Judge John Lisenby. Because of the railroad, Powersville was the transportation center for about a five mile radius surrounding it. People in the area came to Powersville to board the train to go to Macon or Fort Valley. Most people made at least three trips to Macon a year on the train, one for spring supplies, one for pre-school clothing and books, and to do special Christmas shopping. Farmers made trips on the train to buy their fertilizer and farm supplies, then came in their buggies and wagons to meet the train to pick up their supplies when they were delivered there. Most of the melons grown in this area were loaded at Powersville. Powersville had two stores and five white residences in 1881. Some of the early merchants were: Frank Dukes, John M. Lamar, George N. Allen, and David R. Kersh, Mr. W.E. Warren was one of the first residents who lived in a two story dwelling near the railroad. He was the first station agent and first postmaster when the post office was moved from Bateman's Store in the Sixth District to Powersville. He also had large farming interests. Industries here included: a grist mill, saw mills, cotton gin, blacksmithing, syrup making, and a licensed Government Distillery at Brown's Mill nearby. The first sawmill was owned by A.K. Fisher, a Canadian. Powersville was one of the most prosperous farm communities in the area at that time. The lands were of a very high productive type and the farm families lived a very good life. At one point of its bustling activity, Powersville boasted of being the Watermelon Center of the world. Other farm products grown there were corn, cotton, sugar cane, peanuts, and livestock. Many fruits were here such as apples, pears, peaches, plums, strawberries, grapes. Some of the fresh fruits were enjoyed by passengers on the trains when they stopped for wood and water. An ex-slave woman, Lena Barnes, who worked for my grandfather, J.H. M. Cliett, would meet the trains, go inside and sell fruit to the passengers. Among some of the first settlers were the Burdens, Barnes, Warrens, Scattergoods, Edwards, Clietts, Lamars, Allens, Chunns, Hays, Fluellens, Englishes, Eptings, Bassetts, Oats, Culpeppers, Nathan Head, Browns, Murray, Rigbys, Elkins, Greenes, Murrays, Howards and Averas. Some of the first teachers were John M. Lamar, Schoolmaster, Mrs. Lucy Lionard, Miss Essie C. McMillan, John Sullivan, and George W. Allen. The first Congregational Church in Houston County was built in Powersville which is now the Methodist Church here. Mrs. Neta Bassett contributed much toward promoting this church and helping many other people. She built on of the finest homes one could have in that period about 1910. A real landmark today, the home has four huge fluted Corinthian Columns, 14 rooms, spacious grounds with paved drives and walks and a tennis court. This house is presently owned and occupied by Mr. O.C. Lansford. {1939?] Mr. W.H. Carter, St. was one of the first ministers. *** ED NOTE: Mrs. Neta Allen Bassett is buried at Cliett Cemetery. http://scvcamp1399.org/docs/cliett-cemetery-listing.txt Mr. Early English established the first rural telephone system here. The last early settler and last surviving Civil War Veteran in Peach County was J.H.M. Cliett, who passed away in 1940 at the age of 94. The oldest slave woman to live her life out in Powersville was Savannah Fluellen, who died about 20 years ago at 105 years old [1939?] Some of these facts were published in the Houston Home Journal, in Perry, GA on Oct 6, 1881 and reprinted by The Leader Tribune on Feb 9, 1939. Other facts came from a publication prepared by Mrs. Mary L. (Green) Smith (Mrs. W.B.) in 1921. Editorial Note: Cecil D. Cliett resides in the old Cliett home place. It was originally a long house, built in 1866. Three generations of Clietts have lived there, and extensive renovation has taken place. =============================================END About Powersville =========== Author Cecil D.
