SUMMARY:Faces of Civil War Nurses: An Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:In partnership with Military Images magazine and the National Museum of Civil War Medicine\, The Andrew Carnegie Free Library & Music Hall is proud to welcome a new temporary exhibit\, “Faces of Civil War Nurses\,” featuring portraits and personal stories of women who served as nurses during the Civil War. The exhibit first debuted in 2025 at the Clara Barton Missing Soldiers Office Museum in Washington\, DC. \n\n\n\nIt is estimated that over 20\,000 women served as volunteer nurses during the war\, enduring long hours and multiple tours of duty across both front-line battlefields and at numerous hospitals and communities across the country. Forbidden from serving in “indelicate” medical settings at the outset of the Civil War\, women quickly broke down social conventions in caring for the sick and wounded\, risking both disease and the brutal realities of war. These women provided invaluable aid\, from changing bandages and cooking food to comforting the dying\, and innumerable other tasks. \n\n\n\n“During the Civil War\, thousands of courageous women stepped beyond traditional roles to serve as nurses\, caring for the wounded and sick in the chaos of war’s brutal realities. In this exhibit\, you’ll stand face to face with life-sized portraits of 20 of these intrepid pioneers who shaped the future of nursing and redefined the role of women in American society\,” said Military Images Editor and Publisher Ron Coddington. “This is a rare glimpse into their resilience\, sacrifice\, and humanity.” \n\n\n\nThe exhibit will be on display in the Lincoln Gallery at the Andrew Carnegie Free Library & Music Hall through May 9. The building is open Mondays from 12 p.m. – 7 p.m.; Tuesdays – Thursdays from 10 a.m. – 7 p.m.; and Fridays and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. \n\n\n\nFor questions\, please contact Espy Post Curator Jon-Erik Gilot at gilotj@carnegiecarnegie.org.

SUMMARY:2nd Saturday Civil War Series: The Veteran Reserve Corps with David Welker
DESCRIPTION:In Person in the Lincoln Gallery at ACFL&MH \n\n\n\nZoom: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/9370579279Meeting ID: 937 057 9279 \n\n\n\nIn early 1863\, just two years into the Civil War\, Abraham Lincoln’s Union cause was in deep trouble\, and short on manpower the president was forced to implement the nation’s first general military draft. Similarly beset was Col. James B. Fry\, the Union’s new provost marshal general\, who had been placed in charge of the draft but without any troops to carry out the controversial effort. Just as troubled were thousands of individual wounded and injured Union combat veterans in the North’s many hospitals\, who found themselves retained in military service but unable to return to withstanding the rigors of front-line service. In a bold stroke of organizational innovation Fry set in motion solving all these problems at once by creating the Invalid Corps. Renamed the Veteran Reserve Corps (VRC)\, Fry’s force contributed to Union victory not just by conducting the Union’s drafts\, but in myriad other significant ways as well. By freeing healthy men to serve in the field the VRC ensured Northern victory and by the war’s close new Brig. Gen. Fry had commanded 60\,000 men – only Gen. Ulysses S. Grant led more troops. \n\n\n\nPerforming important rear-area duties such as guarding government facilities—military stores\, bridges\, and prisoner of war camps—or working as office clerks and hospital nurses\, the VRC’s presence scattered across the North served as a unifying\, stabilizing force during the Civil War’s darkest days. Yet in some instances these invalid soldiers\, intended only for rear area duty\, found themselves once again called to combat\, wielding skills they had learned in places such as Antietam\, Gettysburg\, and Spotsylvania. In its most notable such moment VRC men held off Confederate General Jubal Early’s corps during its July 1864 attack on Washington\, DC\, buying time for Grant to reinforce and save the nation’s capital. \n\n\n\nAlthough the VRC’s many contributions have been largely lost to American history\, now you can learn the full story of how these invalid veterans rose to continue serving their nation by making “the penultimate sacrifice.” Join historian and author David A. Welker who will be discussing his new book “Now I’m with the Invalids:” The Union’s Veteran Reserve Corps in America’s Civil War. \n\n\n\nDavid A. Welker’s previous works include The Cornfield: Antietam’s Bloody Turning Point\, Tempest at Ox Hill: The Battle of Chantilly and A Keystone Rebel: The Civil War Diary of Joseph Garey\, as well as numerous academic journal and commercial magazine and newspaper articles about diverse aspects of the Civil War. A professional historian and military analyst for the Federal Government with 40 years’ experience\, he holds a master’s degree in International Affairs from American University and a bachelor’s degree in Political Science and History from Westminster College.

SUMMARY:PA Lyme Resource Network presents: Dare 2B Tick Aware
DESCRIPTION:Join Janine Hauck of PA Lyme Resource Network to learn the best ways to avoid tick bites this year! The “Dare 2B Tick Aware” program aims to improve the use of prevention strategies\, reduce tick bites\, and improve early diagnosis\, using the most current research available to standardize prevention messages across the state. \n\n\n\nWe’ll explore Pennsylvania tick statistics; how to identify different kinds of ticks; where ticks live; how they behave; Lyme and other tick-borne diseases; recognizing the early symptoms of these diseases; how to prevent tick bites; and what to do if you’re bitten by a tick. \n\n\n\nRegistration is appreciated\, but walk-ins are welcome. Please click here to register. \n\n\n\nJanine Hauck was an avid outdoors person\, gardener\, and dancer until she contracted Lyme Disease in 2019. She never saw a tick on her or a bullseye rash\, nor did she feel a tick bite. When she first noticed something was wrong\, she went from doctor to doctor to no avail\, until she was finally diagnosed with chronic Lyme and Anaplasmosis\, almost two years after her initial symptoms. She is now in her fourth year of trying to recover and longs for the day when she can be as active and fit as she once was. Hardly a day goes by that she does not think about ticks. Janine has spent a lot of time learning about ticks and tick-borne illnesses. One of the things she learned is there are a lot of misconceptions out there regarding ticks and Lyme disease. She decided getting certificated by PA Lyme to go out and talk about ticks\, their habitat and prevention would be a good thing to do. It is Janine’s hope that no one suffers like herself and other chronic Lyme patients\, especially in her home state of Pennsylvania where there are a great deal of ticks and Lyme disease is on the rise.
