In 1868, members of the Grand Army of the Republic called upon communities around the country to decorate the graves of Union soldiers who had died during the Civil War on May 30. This call played a major role in establishing what was then known as “Decoration Day,” held annually on May 30 to honor those who paid the ultimate price to defend the Union and end slavery.
In this presentation, Historian and Curator Nick Sacco will discuss the origins of Memorial Day, how it was observed in the years after the Civil War, and Ulysses S. Grant’s participation in a Memorial Day event in St. Louis in 1883. He will also discuss how the holiday has evolved into a day of sports, retail sales, and the unofficial start of summer for Americans today.
Historian Amy Fluker chronicles the brief but interesting history of a rare veterans society that opened membership to both ex-Confederate and Union veterans in Missouri, explores what "reconciliation" after the Civil War meant to Missourians in the late 19th century. and how they hoped to achieve it.
The program is free, but reservations are required. For reservations, please call (314) 842-1867 ext. 230. more info...
