Hello List, We are planning a trip to Virginia this October and would like to know if anyone has any 'must see' Civil War sites. The three we are definately planning on visiting are Richmond, Chancellorsville (lost a gg-uncle there on May 3 with the 16th North Carolina Infantry) and Lexington. We will be there a week but want to spend quality time at the sites we do go to, therefore, we would appreciate help on narrowing the list down. Thanks.

I have just returned from the eastern part of the Civil War Sites. Get "National Geographic Guide to the CIVIL WAR National Battlefield Parks" ISBN # 0-87044-878-1. This small book will help you to make up your mind as to where to go and have an idea of what you may see and the significance of the battles. Because you are interested in the CIVIL WAR, don't forget much of our history, Pre-Civil war, is also located in that area. Mount Vernon, Monticello, etc. Have a wonderful trip, Don't try to see everything, They would like you to, Come back, y'll.

If you are interested in Chacellorsville, you might want to visit Guinea Station, the place where Stonewall Jackson died. It is off of I-95 no far from Fredericksburg. I believe there is a $ 4.00 fee and you must buy your ticket at the Fredericksburg battlefield which is also very interesting. They are run by the3 National Park Service Myra ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brenda Normandin" <harrow444@yahoo.com> To: <CIVIL-WAR-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, July 29, 2003 3:12 PM Subject: [CIVIL-WAR] Civil War Trip > Hello List, > > We are planning a trip to Virginia this October and > would like to know if anyone has any 'must see' Civil > War sites.
