The Laurel Home Guard is interested in compiling all available records of soldiers from Laurel County who served in the Civil War or other wars so we can have the information available at the new Historical Museum.
The Laurel County History Museum and Genealogy Center will be coming soon to the Heritage Hills property located between exits 41 and 38 on I-75 (accessible from the Falls Road in London).
The History Museum will have a special emphasis on early migration routes and military conflicts. There will be a small theater for films and plays.
The Genealogy Center will be easily accessible and available for research. This facility will be located at the large barn on the property.
Both barns are currently under extensive renovation and are nearing completion. The property will be highly visible from the Interstate and will attract many visitors.
Please help this new facility by providing copies of your research and records. Contact Judy Krahenbuhl at the London-Laurel County Tourism Commission at 606-878-6900 or 800-348-0095 for more information.
The Laurel Home Guard is grateful for all the support that we have received in the past and continue to receive from individuals, businesses, county and state agencies, and the many volunteers who help keep us going.
Please contact Juanita Westerfield if you would like to volunteer to help with the 2010 reenactment event Oct. 15-17, or with other events throughout the year.
Thank you all for your support. We look forward to seeing you at the 21st Battle of Camp Wildcat Reenactment on Oct. 15-17, 2010!
