SUMMARY:Culpeper Minute Men: Icons of Independence
DESCRIPTION:The Culpeper Minute Men was organized in the fall of 1775in response to Governor Patrick Henry’s call for the Virginia militia to protect the capital at Williamsburg. Their uniform consisted of hunting shirts bearing the words “Liberty or Death” and a distinctive rattlesnake flag stating both “Liberty or Death” and “Don’t Tread On Me.” \n“That flag\, and the message it conveyed\, really ensured the place of the minute men in popular memory\,” said John Christiansen\, the museum’s executive director. “That phrasing will be revived over and over for the next 250 years. It was in the minds of the men who joined the reborn Culpeper Minute Men during the Civil War in what they considered to be another American Revolution. And the sons and grandsons of those Civil War veterans carried on that legacy into what would eventually become Culpeper’s National Guard company.” \nChristiansen explains that newspaper articles from the 1880s and into the early 20th century describe current members of the unit as all “direct descendants” of the original minute men. A short history and description of the flag – one of the first used by the patriot cause – is almost always included. \nCulpeper continued to host Virginia and National Reserve units after World War I\, but their identity as the “Culpeper Minute Men” eventually faded away. Older veterans created the Culpeper Minute Men Association to keep the memory alive locally\, but the minute men were becoming part of national culture. \n“America’s Bicentennial in 1976 saw an explosion of Revolutionary War commemorative items\, and the Culpeper Minute Men are featured in their fair share of plates\, postcards\, coloring books\, trading cards\, tumblers\, and more\,” said Christiansen. “The earliest example we have is a small pewter tray dated to the 1880s and made by a Culpeper jeweler\, probably for one of the Civil War veterans.” \nToday\, the Culpeper Minute Men are featured in the seals of Culpeper County and the Town of Culpeper\, and their name is invoked in local businesses and clubs. “And don’t forget the Virginia license plate design\,” says Christiansen \nThe exhibit will be on display through 2026. It is part of a series of events Culpeper County has prepared as part of the Virginia 250 commemorative programming. \n

SUMMARY:“The Hatfields and the McCoys – From Civil War to Family Feud”
DESCRIPTION:At the Brandy Station Volunteer Fire Department Hall\, special guest speakers Reo Hatfield II & Ron McCoy present “The Hatfields and the McCoys – From Civil War to Family Feud”. This is part of the Brandy Station Foundation Lecture Series. The names of speakers Reo Hatfield II and Ron McCoy are instantly recognizable because of the world-famous feud between the Hatfields and the McCoys. However\, in 2003\, Reo and Ron signed the historic Hatfield-McCoy truce\, which was broadcast live on national television. That document would be a formal truce ending all hostilities\, implied\, inferred\, and real between the Hatfields and the McCoys. This talk will include the Hatfield family’s military service during the Civil War and the years long feud between the families. We look forward to hearing the true story behind the family feud. Please come prepared to hear answers to many of your questions. There will be a book signing after the event.\nReo B. Hatfield II is the President and CEO of Prince Michel Vineyard\, Brewery\, and Winery in Leon\, Virginia. He is a former Vice Mayor\, City Councilman and Planning Commissioner member of Waynesboro\, VA\, as well as a retired Chief of Police of Waynesboro. Hatfield also served for two years in Korea with the U.S. Army as a Sergeant and is a private pilot. Ron McCoy is the great-great-great-grandson of Randolph McCoy\, patriarch of the family at the time of the feud. He helped organize the first national reunion of the Hatfields and McCoys in 2000. He is the author of Reunion\, a book which chronicles the reconciliation of the Hatfields and McCoys. The Brandy Station Foundation is a non-profit 501 (c) (3) community organization which operates the 1858 Graffiti House at 19484 Brandy Road in Brandy Station which contains Civil War graffiti and a museum.
