Well, let’s have a little look around the Old North State to see what is brewing in the news.
The Sun News (Raleigh) had an interesting article on a soldier in the 15th NCST who suffered from PTSD (even though the article does not quite go that far). The soldier ended up in the NC State Insane Asylum and is buried in the hospital’s cemetery. The article can be found here.
Rob Neufeld continues his writings on western North Carolina and the War with an article on Thomas L. Clingman. It is interesting that while Neufeld calls Clingman that “fire eater from the Carolina mountains” due to Clingman’s stance on secession, he makes no mention of that fact that Clingman owned no slaves. Check out the article here.
Another article dealing with the battle at Deep Creek appeared recently in the PJStar (Peoria, IL). Read more here.
The Mount Airy News reports on a living history held recently Horne Creel Living History Farm. Check it out here.
Check out this article on the cemetery at Mount Bethel Evangelical Church in Summerfield.
