There were 3 Morgan raids in Kentucky, the First Raid, Christmas Raid and the Great Raid between 1862 and 1863, this series highlights some of those raids and gives you a look back at history. To fully enjoy this series, it is best to follow the route that Morgan went as much as possible by following the older roads along your path.

Outnumbered two to one, a regiment of union soldiers were able to hold off two attacks waves of Morgan and his men on the town during the Christmas Raid. Read the sign at the waymark for more information.
This series is a work in progress; I have placed waymarks on all the signs in my area, and I encourage others to use the same format and continue this series in your area.
If you enjoyed this waymark you might want to try one of the other caches in this series in Kentucky.
