Here is an interesting article direct from today's issue of the Rensselaer County Advertiser newspaper.
Oakwood's Next tour: 9 and 1/2 Generals
The Friends of Oakwood Cemetery will present their next public tour, 9 and 1/2 Generals, on Saturday, August 4, from 9AM to 12 noon.
What, you never heard of a half general? Along with the great Civil War generals, Wool, Thomas, Carr, and others, the "half general" is one of the may interesting military stories you'll hear in this popular tour led by Michael Barrett. If you are a military history buff, you won't want to miss it.
Registration preferred. Call 518-328-0090. Pay on arrival. $15 pp; children under 12 are free. Meet at the chapel flagpole. In case of inclement weather, status of the tour will be updated on our Facebook page: Oakwood Cemetery, Troy, NY.
