E.T. Wickham was not only a farmer and land surveyor, he was a folk artist who did many unique and interesting outdoor sculptures in an outdoor museum in the Wickham Hollow area. This talented sculptor began his art career at the age of 69. These larger-than-life concrete statues have been featured in many publications and two stand on the campus of Austin Peay State University.
In the 1960s, the Federal government commissioned work by this self-taught artist for an outdoor museum at Fort Campbell, Kentucky. After its completion, this work, that was modeled after the “Spirit of Infantry” in Arlington Cemetery, was transported to Fort Campbell for a dedication ceremony.
Some of Wickham’s statues are religious in nature and reflect his spiritual faith. Many of the statues homor famous people and some are dedicated to individuals. There are statues honoring Andrew Jackson, Babe Ruth, and Alvin C. York, just to name a few. There is one dedicated to his oldest brother, Dr. John Wickham, a physician, who was a member of the Tennessee Legislature at one time. One of Tanner Wickham’s uncles was also a doctor. There is another statue dedicated to Tanner’s son Ernest who was killed in France during Would War II and it is also dedicated to all those from Montgomery county who gave their lives for their country.
Wickham’s family were Union supporters and there is one statue dealing with the Civil War. During the Civil War, a vote was taken in the Montgomery Furnace area to determine who was for the Confederacy. Mr. Russell, who was later to become a captain in the Confederate Army, advised the voters if anyone voted for the Union, he would be hung. Under these circumstances, two courageous men, Robert L. Wickham, who was Enoch Tanner’s father, and William Marsh, who was Tanner’s grandfather, voted against the Confederacy. They were forced to leave town and did not return until the war ended.
The majority of the folk art in the outdoor museum in Wickham Hollow has been vandalized over the years and few of these remain intact. the State of Tennessee in conjunction with the Metropolitan Museum of Art is attempting to save Tennessee’s outdoor sculpture and perhaps with their help, these folk art pieces can be preserved.
E.T. Wickham died August 27, 1970 and his wife died May 20,1968 and they are buried in the Wickham Cemetery, not far from this outdoor museum.
