Historical note |
In 1858, young Frank H. McClung was a founding partner, with James Cowan, Perez Dickinson, and Charles J. McClung, of the Knoxville mercantile firm Cowan, McClung & Company. During the Civil War, Frank McClung moved to Virginia to work with his uncle in the salt mining business. Even though the McClungs were known Confederate sympathizers and Perez Dickinson a decided Union man, the firm resumed operations as before at war's end. |
