Fairfax Museum and Visitor Center
Hosts Remembering Mosby Roundtable
A Remembering Mosby Roundtable featuring local historians and
interpreters, is set for 2 p.m., Sunday, July 10, at Fairfax Museum and Visitor Center,
10209 Main Street, Fairfax. Admission is free and refreshments will be served.
Roundtable discussion leaders will explore both the military and civilian life of
Confederate Colonel John S. Mosby, who commanded the 43rd Battalion of Virginia
Cavalry, known as "Mosby's Rangers," during the Civil War. Discussion of Mosby's
military actions will focus on events that took place in the Fairfax area, including his
capture of a Union general here in March 1963.
Scheduled to participate in the Remembering Mosby Roundtable are authors and
tour leaders Tom Evans, Don Hakenson, Gregg Dudding, Dave Goetz, Dr. Kenneth S.
McAtee, and Bill Etue.
The Remembering Mosby Roundtable is the latest in Fairfax Museum and Visitor
Center's "Catch the History Spirit" program series held the second Sunday of each
Month. The programs are part of the City of Fairfax's yearlong bicentennial celebration,
and topics are linked with the Museum's new permanent Fairfax history exhibition, called The
Fairfax Story.
Upcoming programs include: Feed Sack Quilts and Play Clothes, an illustrated talk by
Joan Knight, Director of the Virginia Quilt Museum, on August 14, and a living history
presentation on September 11 by Mary Wiseman as First Lady Martha Washington. The series
will continue on October 9, November 13, and December 11.
