"The only monument south of the Ohio River dedicated to Union Soldiers who died in the Civil War is located in Vanceburg."

I guess they've never been to Vicksburg http://www.nps.gov/vick/scenic/postcard/hpc_usstm.htm or Andersonville, or even Kennesaw Mountain.

I'll be glad when I post Wyoming's "Facts and Trivia" and be done with it. Then I intend to send an email to 50states.com stating in so many words that they are proof that the internet cannot be relied upon for historical accuracy.

Some of your finds (especially this one) aren't just inaccurate but border on insulting.

As for post #202 I think that has more to do with just referring to Washington as "President" rather than "General" with respect to the time-line. Maybe.
