Help Save Another 141 Acres at Perryville!

The Civil War Trust has another campaign to raise money to save 141 acres of one of the most pristine battlefields in the United States.  And every dollar you donate will be matched four to one!  The area in question is where the 3rd Ohio and 15th Kentucky fought near the Squire Bottom house and barn, facing Louisianans in Adams' brigade, and is an integral part of the battlefield.  This was Federal general Alexander McCook's right flank, and these regiments under William Lytle did all they could to hold this position agaist superior numbers.

Saving this piece our property would add another excellent parcel of land that future generations will be able to enjoy.  Please donate today!
