We are glad to announce that the Sons of Confederate Veterans (scv.org or 1800mysouth.com) are 2011 Sponsors of Our History Project. The Sons of Confederate Veterans is an Organization who shares the Vision and Mission of Our History Project, which is the Perseveration and Education of History.

Who are the Sons of Confederate Veterans?
The citizen-soldiers who fought for the Confederacy personified the best qualities of America. The preservation of liberty and freedom was the motivating factor in the South's decision to fight the Second American Revolution. The tenacity with which Confederate soldiers fought underscored their belief in the rights guaranteed by the Constitution. These attributes are the underpinning of our democratic society and represent the foundation on which this nation was built.
Today, the Sons of Confederate Veterans is preserving the history and legacy of these heroes, so future generations can understand the motives that animated the Southern Cause.
About the Sons of Confederate Veterans
The SCV is the direct heir of the United Confederate Veterans, and the oldest hereditary organization for male descendants of Confederate soldiers. Organized at Richmond, Virginia in 1896, the SCV continues to serve as a historical, patriotic, and non-political organization dedicated to insuring that a true history of the 1861-1865 period is preserved.
Membership in the Sons of Confederate Veterans is open to all male descendants of any veteran who served honorably in the Confederate armed forces. Membership can be obtained through either direct or collateral family lines and kinship to a veteran must be documented genealogically. The minimum age for full membership is 12, but there is no minimum for Cadet Membership. read more.........

White Oak Civil War Museum
This historic travel presentation of OHP has been requested for a long time now. Every time we bring up The White Oak Civil War Museum on the Relic Roundup it is always: “You got to go!”, “It’s unbelievable!”, or a number of other comments but always ending with an exclamation mark. Our guest is D.P. Newton.
Description from : http://www.virginia.org/site/description.asp?attrid=11405
White Oak Museum houses an extensive collection of Civil War artifacts, representing both Union and Confederate troops. Most items were discarded or lost by troops camping or fighting in the Stafford County and Fredericksburg areas. Displays will amaze the novice as well as the serious Civil War Buff - including replicas of soldier huts that were used as temporary housing during the winter months. Many Civil War soldiers died of wounds and disease. To give proper remembrance to these brave soldiers, White Oak Museum exhibits both military and personal items to honor the soliders, from private to general, who suffered both in battle and behind the front lines.
"(Photo of (L-R) (see main site http://www.ourhistoryproject.com) Matt Jennings, Maverick Jennings, and DP Newton looking over a find by young Maverick. The article, Uncle Matt and Maverick, will be in the January 2011 issue of American Digger Magazine (Vol 7, Issue 1)."
