Harrison Home is a short distance north of Laurel Hill, and two miles south of the Carter House. This home served as Hood’s headquarters during the Battle of Franklin on November 30, 1864. Here is where Hood held council with his subordinates and officers Forrest, Cleburne and Cheatham argued against the attack. General John C. Carter was brought here after suffering a mortal wound at Franklin, where he lingered for three days before his death.
