Veterans of the Civil War 

by Minden Press-Herald

Mansfield State Historic Site 

November 11, 2023 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm 

In honor of Veterans Day, this program will look at the fate of those who survived the Civil War  and what their lives were like once the war was over, as well as compare their stories with those  veterans who returned home from war in later wars. We will also present stories of those who  sought to make a new life for themselves as ranchers, cowboys, and prospectors in the open  spaces of the American West. After the presentation, there will be a roll call in honor of all the  regiments, United States and Confederate that fought at the Battle of Mansfield. 

Mansfield State Historic Site is located on La. Hwy. 175, three miles south of Mansfield.  Admission is $4.00 per person age 4-61; seniors 62 and over and children 3 and under are  free.
