Pictured are the young men that took part in our chapter Christmas Civil War presentation in December of 2003. Jonathan played the “fiddle.” Devin spoke concerning his Eagle Scout Project of cleaning and painting GAR markers throughout the Steubenville Union Cemetery. These young men are fine examples of how the young people want to participate and get involved in our cemetery projects. Jeff led the Civil War presentation with shared “gleanings” from the Steubenville Herald Star Newspaper of articles that ran during the Civil War period.
