In 1923, Washington Strother
Dearmont documented his memories of life in Clarke County, Virginia,
which were titled "Recollections of Washington Strother Dearmont"
when they were included in the book, "Annals of Clarke County,
Virginia", by Stuart E. Brown, Jr
In 2002 we received
permission from Mr. Brown to post the Dearmont memories on this site,
and we have done so below, using page images scanned directly from the
book.
This documentation covers the
Civil War period. Not only has it been an invaluable source of
information for our research, it is written in such a way that reading
it is almost like "being there".
