Pat Gradwohl presents Sarah Elder with the CWRTWM Monuments Book Vol 2 after Sarah's talk on "The Civil War in St. Joseph, MO"29 members were present at the July meeting of the Civil War Round Table of Western Missouri.  Hold it, make that 30.  We added a new member.  29 or 30, all present enjoyed a wonderful fact filled presentation by Sarah Elder on how the Civil War effected St. Joseph, MO.  We often concentrate so hard on the war in Jackson County that we sometimes forget that other communities suffered.  Sarah brought compelling stories of how the citizens survived the war.  If the number of questions asked is any indication, our members were engaged and intrigued by the presentation.  So, next month on Wednesday, August 14 at 7 PM please count yourself in and join us as Larry Wood presents the Bushwhacker Belles.
