Civil War Buffs In KY
KENTUCKY...
Hundreds of Civil War buffs and preservationists are descending on central Kentucky. The four-day Civil War Preservation Trust conference is underway in Lexington. Among the planned activities are bus tours of battlefields in Richmond, Perryville and Mills Springs. The Civil War Preservation Trust, based in Washington, D.C., is a nonprofit devoted to preserving endangered Civil War battlefields. It has provided more than $100,000 in matching funds toward the preservation of the Richmond Battlefield, and the Perryville Battlefield is on its "most endangered" list.
