Thanks, John, I'm with the Five Mile House that sponsored the Charleston Riot. Turned out to be a great event. Also, giving a session later this week on my historic sing along program and music in early America at the Midwest Open Air Museums conference in Lafayette, IN which will include information on early banjos and minstrel shows. Still need to learn how to play my Boucher banjo in the early style however. Hope your site and information will help.
John, on the agenda for the Vintage Base Ball Association meeting in Chicago, I see that you and Elaine are presenters regarding 19th C clothing. I doubt I'm attending but will stop by if I am.

Welcome Tom. I was down in Charleston a couple of years ago for the reenactment of the Charleston Riot. Great to have another Illini.
