Clary as ñSecond Lieutenant in the Fifth Regiment of Infantryƒî Patriotic vignettes of an eagle with wings spread at top center and battle flags, cannons, cannon balls, and regiment drum across the bottom. Robert E. Clary (1805-1890), West Point Class of 1828, first served mostly on the Western frontier and in the Second Seminole War. In the Civil War, he was Chief Quartermaster in several army departments until August 1864, when Clary was placed in charge of the Memphis Army Depot, in which capacity he served until the end of the war. Rising to the rank of Brevet Colonel Robert E. Clary and Deputy Quartermaster-General, in 1866, President Andrew appointed Clary Brigadier General by brevet, ñfor faithful and meritorious services during the war, to date from March 13, 1865.î John H. Eaton (1790-1856) was elected by the Tennessee legislature to fill a vacancy and entered the U.S. Senate at age 28 even though the U.S. Constitution requires a Senator to be at least 30 years old _ his seating was not opposed and he still is the youngest U.S. Senator in history. Eaton served in the Senate from 1818 to 1829 when he resigned, having been appointed JacksonÍs Secretary of War (1829-1831). Eaton later served as Governor of the Territory of Florida (1834-1836) and Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to Spain (1836-1840).
