The Benson-Hammond House in Linthicum, MD, is having an event focused on the Civil War in Maryland: "MD Connections to the War Between the States at the BHH." Learn about the Benson-Hammond House at their website: https://aachs.org/benson-hammond-house/

 

In addition to information on local battles and their impact, names of soldiers, etc, this will be an opportunity to meet representatives from various heritage societies. Also, the band the Overtones will be there, playing Appalachian style music- think fiddle, banjo, dulcimer- songs of the era. 

 

Our member, Jan Sharik Baker, is the lead volunteer for the Benson-Hammond House and coordinates their public events. She hopes that some members of our Tent would be able to be there to represent the DUVCW-DC, as it would be wonderful for visitors to know what we are all about.

 

Information about the event can be found on The Ann Arrundell County Historical Society website: https://aachs.org/upcoming-events/
