HTP EP 75: Union Mills Homestead - A Family Divided w/Kyle Dalton

July 15, 2024 • History Things Podcast • Season 5 • Episode 14

While Pat and Matt are very familiar with the military aspects of the American Civil War, what about the civilians of the Civil War Era? To help the guys explore the story of Maryland civilians during the war they are joined by Kyle Dalton, the Executive Director of Union Mills Homestead!

Join the guys as they discuss this piece of Maryland history, the divided loyalties of the Shriver family during the Civil War. They will also look at how the family came back together and how Union Mills flourished after the war.

Want to learn more about the Shriver family or the interactions between soldiers and civilians? Join Union Mills Homestead for their Citizen Meets Soldier programs this summer on July 20 and 21!
