On April 5th, 2017 at 7 pm, Howard Coffin will be speaking at the Westford Brick Meeting house on "VERMONT AND THE CIVIL WAR". The Westford Brick Meeting house is located on the Westford Town Common, 1685 Rte. 128, Westford, VT.
From Cedar Creek to Gettysburg, Vermonters were central to the Union cause. Renown Vermont author and Civil War historian Howard Coffin will address the Vermont contribution to the Civil War. Vermont sent more than 34,000 into the Civil War where 5,194 Vermonters were either shot, mortally wounded or died from disease during the war. Join us as we learn of the services, and sacrifices, that Vermont Soldiers provided to the Civil War effort.
