Patch Launches Civil War Page On Facebook

This past April 12, the nation marked the 150th anniversary of the start of the American Civil War.

Patch has launched a Civil War Page to highlight all the events in the different Patch communities where the war played a role — from battle commemorations and reenactments, to book readings, memorials and other events.

The North Druid Hills-Briarcliff area likely played a role in all this. A cursory review of local history reveals some interesting tidbits about the Northlake and Henderson Mill areas. North Druid Hills-Briarcliff Patch will be looking into this a little more, so expect some actual stories in the future.

You can check out our stories and photo galleries and comment on posts to the page, as well as share your thoughts and pictures.
