    2. Rod's Account
    3. Hi folks - Just a quick note to say that a few updates were made to the 74th PA website. They included the adding of a couple new researchers and their ancestor's information, the inclusion of a colleague's sutlery business out here on the West Coast - yes we have re-enactments too, and a great picture of the 74th Memorial at Gettysburg ca. 1900. Also two reminders for May events - from the notes I was sent. For more information contact the individuals noted below: 1. Blenheim Weekend - Blenheim House, Fairfax, Virginia (four of "our boys" left their grafiti on the walls in this historic mansion) we will be sponsoring an event the weekend of May 1st and 2nd and the house will be open to the public - tours of the attic walls themselves will also be open by special appointment as well. TO find out more information about our event here in our wonderful City please take a look at the link below. Thank you and your WEB team for recognizing our efforts to save this great piece of history - I hope you will have a chance to come see it for yourself soon - http://www.ci.fairfax.va.us/CityHistory/BlenheimCivilWar.htm Brad Preiss [[email protected]] 2. Snyder County, PA Memorial Day Greetings to you and yours. At the dedication of the restored Snyder County Civil War Soldiers and Sailors Monument in Middleburg, PA on May 31st (Memorial Day), a wreath will be laid at the monument by four veterans who are also descendants of Civil War soldiers. Two of these men - Maurice M. Zechman and Russell J. Goss - are descendants of Reuben Zechman of Company D of the 74th Pennsylvania. The dedication will take place in the evening following Middleburg's Memorial Day parade (approximately 6:15pm). Everyone is invited - we'd be glad to have other friends and descendants of the 74th present. John Deppen [[email protected]] Enjoy! Rod Fleck Sent from Forks, Washington
