	TN Encyclopedia: CAMP BLOUNT
		Situated along the banks of the Elk River in Fayetteville (Lincoln County), Camp Blount served as the rendezvous point and mustering ground for many of the troops under Andrew Jackson in the period of 1813 to 1814.
		In spite of the fact that Camp Blount served as a campground during several conflicts, though, whatever recognition the site has received is based largely on its connection to Andrew Jackson.
		While it is difficult to ascertain the exact number of troops that passed through Camp Blount during the war, it is probable that several thousand soldiers, at different times, gathered at this point.

	[No title]
		Blount had been a powerful politician in North Carolina during the 1780s, helping to negotiate the cession of the state's western lands to the United States, and smoothing the way for the State of Franklin's brief reintegration to the state.
		Blount's career, though, demonstrated little of that successful unity of principle and authority, marred by contradictions between self-interest and the public good and between national and local responsibility.
		Blount's obituary was not quite a bald-faced lie about factual matters (although the passage about the "confidence" of President Washington comes close), but rather an attempt, perhaps even somewhat honest, to convey what Roulstone and Blount's friends probably believed was a deeper truth that could convince and inspire the people who read it.
