During the Civil War, the governor of Tennessee was Isham G. Harris. He served from 1857 to 1862 and was a staunch supporter of the Confederacy. Harris was a significant figure in Tennessee's secession from the Union and played a prominent role in the state's wartime government. After the fall of the Confederacy, he fled the state and lived in exile for several years.
