• A Woman From The Civil War

    From Eddie Wilson@RICKSBBS to All on Tuesday, July 01, 2025 12:30:15
    A recount of a member of the youth programs team at Mount Vernon:

    "Originally my office was located in the Teacher Resource Center of the Education Center which is now Be Washington. It was after hours and the staff had left. I gathered my coat and bag and set them on the table facing my desk
    - as I turned to put on my coat, I saw a female figure standing in the door
    of my office.

    She was dressed in clothing from the Civil War period and she was totally grey - her complete body and clothing were grey. She stood in the doorway looking straight ahead without moving - her stare was very stern. It happened quickly and then she was gone. There was no doubt in my mind that Ann Pamela Cunningham, founder of the Mount Vernon Ladies' Association, had been in the room.

    I stayed for a while, sitting quietly as I listened to the noises of cabinet doors opening and closing in Hands-on-History, but when I looked to see who was there, the room was empty."
