Dr. Neil Greenwood, Professor of History at Cleveland State will give a presentation on the Civil War : “Factors that influenced the allegiances of soldiers from Polk County, Tn.” This presentation was given at the Ohio Valley History Conference in October 2014 and also locally. Many of our ancestors were divided between the Confederate and Union allegiances in our area.
UDC President, Marilyn Kinne encourages all members and Civil War buffs to attend this presentation. Children are also invited. Anyone who loves history, and is interested in the Civil War, this presentation is for you. This is possibly the last presentation in our area. The public is cordially invited to attend.
