Yes, I also have pictures and a few snippets of information about the  
Whites Sulphur Springs in Montgomery County, VA.  When I used to do  
Moses research in the Montgomery County area, I found that the resort  
was used as a hospital during the Civil War.  Alexander Moses from  
Montgomery County, Virginia was:

> Co. K, Enl, on 10/10/61 at Salem, Va  Pres. on 1/1/62. Absent sick  
> at Montgomery White Sulphur Springs Hosp. on 1/27/63 per 12/31/63  
> muster roll.

Then later when it was turned back into a resort, my husband's  
grandfather said that his wife's grandfather, Lorenzo Dow Cole  
(1834-1912) played the violin/fiddle for dances at the White Sulphur  
Springs in Montgomery County.
