Who's good at tracking obscure details?

Thanks, Dennis. I didn't know you were native to Montgomery County, so watch out - I may ask for help sometimes. Your answers, however, do seem to confirm my thoughts that Eddie Fitzgerald dreamed up his adventures of assisting in river crossings.

Wasn't the Battle of Ball's Bluff where Lincoln's friend Col. Baker lost his life? Did Partisan Ranger Wat Bowie (from Prince George's County) stick to land raids in that area before being killed during a raid around Sandy Spring? I think Turner Ashby, CSA, did a lot of work in the area around Loudoun County.

Montgomery County was very active this past year in educating the public during the Sesquicentennial. They produced an excellent video, which I have only seen clips from.
