rmaynard 15,456 #28 Posted February 6, 2014 Can someone tell me if the fair campground has showers. I am just trying to figure out where to stay for the show. Yes, they have nice showers. Not sure of the total, but there are three within about 100 yards of our campsite. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
illinilefttackle 399 #29 Posted February 8, 2014 Information below: 2014 WHCC show.png Karl-just a bit off the subject-but- I have been doing some Genealogy searches and I noticed that the Flyer says "south Mountain" is this around the emmittsburg, Gettysburg area? My ancestors had a farm at South Mountain used by General Howe of the Union army during the invasion of Pennsylvania. Thanks-Al Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

illinilefttackle 399 #32 Posted February 9, 2014 Karl & Chasm thanks for the info-great map- This Ancestry search thing is getting wild! First I find a Tavern in the area-"New Midway" owned by my ancestor where George Washington spent the night during the "Whiskey Rebellion" And now I have found that during the invasion of Pennsylvania by Robert E Lee, the opposing forces of Gen. Howard used my ancestors farm at "South Mountain" for his Headquarters. It's beginning to look like a trip to the Big Show would be in order-then a Historical trip on the side. I'll have to find a way to make it work. Thanks- Al This page tells of the action around "South Mountain" 2Nd paragraph after the picture mentions the "Cookerly" Farm. http://www.emmitsburg.net/archive_list/articles/history/civil_war/south_mountain.htm 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
