FAMOUS PEOPLE & PLACES

This page and the drop-down pages under the heading "Famous People & Places" will be reserved for interesting historical places having to do with the Civil War, Early American history, the burgeoning of Country and Bluegrass musics and with other famous and/or noteworthy people I've learned about or had occasion to meet along my journey through the South. Check back from time to time for new material. Thanks for stopping by.
