William Tappan Thompson
William Tappan Thompson (August 31, 1812 – March 24, 1882) was an American writer who co-founded the ''Savannah Morning News'' in the 1850s, known then as the ''Daily Morning News''. One of his most notable works was ''Major Jones's Courtship,'' an epistolary novel. Thompson's best-known fictional character was Major Joseph Jones.
Originally from Ohio, Thompson moved to Savannah, Georgia, where he co-founded the ''Daily Morning News'' and became an editor. During the American Civil War, he supported the Confederacy and its cause, helping to design the "Stainless Banner," which was used as the Confederacy's national flag from 1863 to 1865.
After the war ended, Thompson, a supporter of the Democrats, opposed the Republican Party in the southern U.S. states, as well as the granting of civil rights to African Americans.〔〔
