Mr. Burnett,
You can find out more about the CW150 Legacy sanning project
administered by the Library of Virginia and view the scans collected
throughout Virginia on our website
(http://www.virginiamemory.com/collections/cw150). You can also find
out more by contacting Lyn Hart ([log in to unmask]).
Good luck,
John

Who would be a point of contact on this general topic at the LVA? I
don't mean this event but The Civil War 150 Legacy Project.
Thanks
