Prattville Dragoons Camp News

The following items were noted in the February Camp 1524 Dispatch newsletter as items of interest.

Lee Advertisement in Autauga Free Press - The Dragoons elected to forego their annual Robert E. Lee birthday advertisement in the Progress newspaper and instead placed a more cost effective ad in the online Autauga Free Press where the ad ran on multiple webpages for an entire week.
Graves Registry on SCV National Website – The National SCV.org website has a graves registry for archiving cemeteries and the Confederate veterans interred there.  Benny Harris has committed to helping get the Indian Hills, Robinson Springs and Rocky Mount cemeteries listed in that database; please contact him regarding any other cemeteries in Autauga and Elmore county.
Autauga Genealogical Society of which Tyrone Crowley and Benny Harris are members met on Saturday, January 17 between 9 a.m. – 4 p.m., at the office of the Probate Judge, 176 W. 5th St., Prattville where Benny did research on the ownership of the Indian Hills cemetery.

Communications Officer and Newsletter Editor - If anyone feels led to volunteer to help with either of these duties please contact Larry or Stuart.
