White Caps and Blue Bills

Blue Bills and the White Caps were the law in Sevier County during the post civil war years. I've heard about these groups all my life.... Apparently, these groups were involved in "helping" people who were "not doing right" by their family or their community was what I always heard. There has been some further investigation and you can read a better description of how they interacted with people in Sevier County at these links. If you are interested.
