SUMMARY:Yankees in Falmouth and Some Confederates too
DESCRIPTION:The first Union soldiers entered Stafford County's town of Falmouth on April 18\, 1862\, as the Confederates burned the bridges over the Rappahannock River to the City of Fredericksburg. Return to the historic port of Falmouth for the fifth annual arrival of "Yankees in Falmouth!" (and Confederates too!). Learn the story of what the soldiers encountered when they marched into this very town nearly 150 years ago. Activities include an encampment\, firing demonstrations\, story-telling\, Civil War artifact displays\, and the reading of actual soldiers' letters from Falmouth. Self-guided walking tours are available of the historic sites in Falmouth (some private residences not open to the public)\, including the historic Moncure Conway House--open for this special two-day event. 2012 will mark the 5th annual Yankees in Falmouth event. Normal amenities including wood\, water\, straw\, etc. Several Michigan Regiments were encamped at Falmouth\, Virginia. This small living history is well worth the trip to Virginia. While there\, a must visit is to the White Oak Museum\, one of the most phenomenal Civil War museums in the country.
LOCATION: 401 River Road, Falmouth, VA, United States
