Confederate Powder Works in Augusta Georgia to be restored.   The State Senate authorized $175,000. to be used to restore the Confederate Powder Works smoke stack and building. Littleton Daniel Paschal and RB Purgason both helped mine saltpeter in mines near Chattanooga, Tn. during the war. Both RB and Littleton just barely avoided capture in 1863 while working in the mine.
            

HEARD COUNTY, GEORGIA: A GREAT PLACE TO LIVE.

Concerning the Purgason Cemetery

I do not believe we are going to get access to the cemetery unless we bring about legal action.  It is sad that people are so sorry as to have no respect for our ancestors. What goes around, comes around.

Liberaliter educatus es, sedehen! Caput tuum in ano est.
