Thank you, I live in falling Waters and the road by falling Waters is called the encampment road off of Route 11
Growing up in New York, I would hear stories all the time about people going to NYC and meeting people they never expected to meet, usually friends, family, etc. I guess things haven't changed all that much since the end of the Civil War.
Thanks for sharing; these are so interesting.
Wow!
I reckon that rear guard action was where General Pettigrew was killed?
Interesting renaissance man, was Pettigrew. I appreciate the fact that your stories involve people and events far less known - that’s one of the great things about this channel.
But perhaps your viewers might not be so familiar with Pettigrew’s story apart from his participation in Longstreet’s assault.
Just a thought.
Great story as usual.
This story about Nimrod Sullivan makes me wonder who the nimrod was that went and ruined the name by making it synonymous with idiot and what they did that was so stupid to cause it.
