April ’65 Confederate Covert Action in the American Civil War

Description

In 1976 I purchased a little bit of nation property in Virginia in KingGeorge County, in the “Northern Neck” of Virginia among the Potomac and Rappahannock waterways. My children and I found a very old log lodge on the property and chose to reestablish it. At the point when we were fairly well alongside our assignment, I enlightened the neighborhood paper concerning our work, imagining that their perusers may be keen on learning about this bit of nearby history. Without a doubt, the paper printed a decent story about the lodge, total with pictures.I later discovered that in taking a shot at the narrative of the lodge the editorial manager had gone to the County Clerk’s office to discover who had claimed the property. The women in the workplace detailed that they had turned upward the same property a brief timeframe before in light of the fact that “two or three men were writing a book about John Wilkes Booth, and they said that he spent the night at that place.”1That stood out enough to be noticed. I realized that Booth had fled to Virginia after the assassination and that he had been murdered in close by Caroline County, but I knew basically nothing else about Booth or the death.
