Get to Know York County: Civil War Murders


One out of every seven Confederate soldiers who fought at Gettysburg and 10% of the Union army marched through York County in the days before the Gettysburg Campaign. On Thursday, April 24, at 6 p.m., at Senior Commons at Powder Mill, 1775 Powder Mill Road, hear from Scott Mingus, Civil War author and lecturer. He will present on the Civil War murders of York County, with true crime stories like the murder of a Rebel soldier by York Countians when they learned he was raiding the area of horses, the discovery of a murdered Union soldier by townspeople, and a lost Union courier killed by a terrified farmer. Learn more as Mingus examines these and other unsolved murder mystery cold cases. This is a popular event with limited seating! Admission is free. Scott Mingus’ books will be available for purchase. RSVP by April 21. Call 717-741-0961 or email dadams@powdermill.com.
