    Not sure where this should go, so feel free to move it.

    For those of you who live in the DC area....I have Anthony Cohen
    coming to my library to do a presentation on March 25th. The
    presentation will be titled: "Patrick and Me", and is based on an
    upcoming documentary film. It will recount the tale of Cohen's
    ancestor, Patrick Sneed, who fled from bondage in 1849. Drawing from
    his forbear's 1856 account, Cohen reconstructs the story of the
    Georgia slave who was captured under the Fugitive Slave Act and later
    went on to fight in the American Civil War.

    If you are interested, just contact me, and I'll give you more
    information on the location and time. My library is in Hyattsville,
    MD, in Prince George's County, MD.

    Tony Cohen is the founder of the Menare Foundation, dedicated to the history of the Underground Railroad. http://www.menare.org/
