Neckfluffs A Neckfluff is a fashion accessory that frames a woman's face in color. It's not a scarf, not a necklace, but better than either.
Neckfluffs are my wife Louise's creation and I created her web site.
140th PA Vols The 140th Pennsylvania Volunteers fought in most of the major battles with the Union Army of the Potomac during the American Civil War, including Gettysburg. You can read their story in their own words. You can also read the diary of my ancestor, Pvt. Philo Paul, who fought and died with them.
Xavier '66 Biographies and other lies submitted by the Sons of Xavier HS class of 1966.
In August of 1862, 1,132 men left Western Pennsylvania to volunteer for service in the Union Army. This group of farmers, teachers, students, shopkeepers and others became the 140th Regiment of Pennsylvania Volunteers who would be chosen repeatedly for service on the front line. Throughout the course of the war, they would suffer more casualties than any other regiment from Pennsylvania, and more than all but two other regiments in the entire Federal Army. In the end, at Appomattox, when less than 300 remained, they would still be on the front line, at the forefront of the Union army chasing the troops of General Robert E. Lee, and it would be in their front that his flag of truce first appeared.
