John J. Knox was a major in the U.S. Army during the American Civil War and a leading figure in the Freedmen's Bureau. [1] Knox Institute was named for him. Monroe Morton attended the Knox Institute and became a messenger for Major Knox. [2]

Johnston was seriously injured during the Civil War and suffered from severe dysentery afterwards. [1]

The University of Georgia library has a collection of papers relating to Knox and the Freedmen's Bureau's activities. [3]

"I do not like to be forced to leave any part of the American Continent for political opinion honestly and such conscientiously entertained. A friend of liberty I have lived and such will I die," Major Knox wrote. [4]
