ATHS Meeting: The conflict between North and South in the Civil War

Gerry Fischer, Meade County resident, historian and author of several historical books will be presenting for Ancestral Trails Historical Monthly meeting.

The  conflict between North and South in the Civil War was fought in small communities across the Bluegrass, where armed men were quick to settle differing opinions with the barrel of a gun. Such was the case along the border states of Kentucky, Missouri, Maryland, and Delaware, where family loyalties were divided equally between both Yankee blue and Rebel gray.  Gerry will share stories on the impact of the Civil War on our local counties and state.
