A Refugee at Hanover Tavern

The Civil War Diary of Margaret Wight

By: The Hanover Tavern Foundation

An account of life on the home front written by a Southern woman trying to survive the daily struggles of the Civil War. The Hanover Tavern outside Richmond was a place of refuge during the Civil War. Life at the Tavern was not always safe as residents weathered frequent Union cavalry raids on nearby railroads, bridges, and farms. Margaret Copland Brown Wight and some of her family braved the war at the Tavern from 1862 until 1865 in the company of a small community of refugees. She kept a diary to document each hardship and every blessing—a day of rain after weeks of drought, news of her sons fighting in the Confederate armies, or word from her daughter caught behind enemy lines. Wight’s diary, discovered more than a century after the war, is a vital voice from a time of tumult. Join the Hanover Tavern Foundation as the diary is presented here for the first time.

Revolutionary City

By: The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation

Spanning the years from 1774 to 1781, Revolutionary City chronicles the collapse of royal government in Virginia and the triumphs and travails of its people during the war. Some of these people, such as Patrick Henry, Benedict Arnold, and George and Martha Washington, are well-known. Others, such as Barbry Hoy, the wife of a carpenter-turned-soldier, and Gowan Pamphlet, and African-American preacher, do not appear in most traditional histories. All these - men and women, patriots and Tories, free and enslaved - took part in the events that turned the people of Williamsburg from subjects of a kind into citizens of a republic.
