Sons of Union Veterans Mansfield, Ohio

We look forward to attending the Sons of Union Veterans MCLaughlin Camp Mansfield, Ohio May 18,2011 meeting at 7 pm at the Soldiers and Sailors Museum, 34 Park Ave W Mansfield, Ohio.

 At the museum in a central display case second level, I found a Soldier Record for the 82nd Ohio, Company F and Private Hiram Terman was listed as a prisoner at Richmond. 

Pushing Hiram's Honor: Gettysburg, Philadelphia, Boston, New England trip

I visited Gettysburg, Philadelphia, Boston, and New England where I talked about my book Hiram's Honor. People were very friendly and I am hopeful that the book will catch on in those areas, especially Gettysburg where Hiram was captured July 1, 1863.

Next I went to Mansfield, Ohio, my (and Hiram's) hometown for a book signing at the Barnes and Noble Bookstore (photo at right). I did a TV interview (see http://www.wmfd.com/newsboard/single.asp?story=37429), saw many of my old classmates, and sold 14 books.

Next, I go to Kenton, Ohio, the town where the 82nd Ohio was formed and trained at Camp Simon Kenton. I almost feel like I am bringing Private Terman home again. I look forward to a grand time.
