The June newsletter provides a guide to Loudoun County online history resources, and highlights our remembrance of former Mayor and LHS Board Member Elaine Walker. History features include a Civil War story by Jim Rada, “The Great Calico Raid;” a brief summary of how the Spanish Flu hit our neighboring town Brunswick, Md. in October 1918; and a History Mystery about identifying a photo taken inside a Lovettsville-area general store in the 1930s. And there’s more: Lovettsville’s “virtual” Memorial Day ceremony and flag-placing at local cemeteries; a newly-discovered Civil War medal awarded to a Lovettsville officer, and an update on the fight to save the Lovettsville Community Center building.
