The General William J. Hardee Camp #1397 of the Sons of Confederate Veterans Welcomes You!

We meet at 7:30 PM on the fourth Monday of each month at the former Historic Second Baptist Church of New Hope, Paulding County, Georgia.  This Historic Church is the beautiful White Frame Building at the intersection of the Dallas-Acworth Highway (Highway 381) and Bobo Road in New Hope, Paulding County, Georgia. This is the same intersection where New Hope Cemetery is.

Our next meeting is 7:30 PM on Monday, July 22, 2024, at the former Historic Second Baptist Church of New Hope. 

 

After a short discussion of Camp business we be honored to have Historian Robert Jones speak for us on "Reconstruction", 

the time from after the end of the war in 1865 to 1877, dominated by the legal, social and political challenges of reintegrating the eleven former Confederate States back into the United States.  During this time, three amendments were added to the United States Constitution.

 

Robert C. Jones served as President of the Kennesaw Historical Society for many years, and also served as a member of the executive board of the Kennesaw Museum Foundation. The Foundation helped fund the 50,000 square foot Southern Museum of Civil War and Locomotive History.


He has written 50+ books on various historical topics, including the Civil War, Revolutionary War, World War I & II, War of 1812 and Ghost Towns.  Robert will have many of those books available for purchase and signing for $10.00 each.
