The Bartow History Museum welcomes historian and researcher Allan Payton for its March Lunch & Learn program, where he will share a powerful and deeply personal Civil War story uncovered through years of research and persistence.Payton’s presentation traces his journey to discover the life of his great-great-grandfather, a Confederate soldier whose experiences were never fully passed down through family stories. What was known: he lost a leg during the war and later struggled to farm using a crude wooden prosthetic.
The talk explores both the hardships faced by Civil War soldiers and the importance of archival research, family artifacts, and determination in uncovering lost history. Attendees are encouraged to bring a lunch and join in discussion after the presentation.
