This blog grew out of my "Down Da Road I Go Blog," which was originally to be about stuff I was interested in, music and what I was doing. There was so much history and Civil War entries, I spun two more off. Starting Jan. 1, 2012, I will be spinning a Naval blog off this one called "Running the Blockade."

The University of Georgia Also Has the Great Seal of the Confederacy
The Hargrett Rare Book and Manuscript Library at the Univ. of Georgia also has the Great Seal of the Confederacy.
The site shows a photo of it and the inscription by it. I am not sure if this is the original or a copy of it. The site doesn't say.
The inscription reads:
Presented to the University of Georgia
Memorial Day April 26, 1945
in memory of
JAMES EVERARD BLACKSHEAR
Youth Soldier in the Army of
CONFEDERATE STATES OF AMERICA
--Old Secesh
