Between 1862 and 1863 there were 3 Morgan raids in Kentucky, the First Raid, Christmas Raid and the Great Raid, 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.

By destroying the rail lines leading into Elizabethtown and the taking of two stockades, Morgan had achieved most of his goals of 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 waymarks in this series in Kentucky.

To log this waymark you must upload a picture of yourself with the sign and your Gps in view.
