  WORD TRIVIA Does anyone know what the word Secesh means? Allow me to share with you the same information that we possess to assist you in answering this question. While rummaging through some old coins to show our children, we came across a letter. It is dated October 11, 1861. The letter discusses the advancement near Chain Bridge and 1 1/2 miles from Lewisville. It refers to the Secesh several times. We had to research the meaning on the internet. I'm curious if any of you know the origin, to what this word is referring, and the pronunciation? I'll share more about this mysterious letter and this interesting word tomorrow.

Name:

I received a MA in a Sociological Discipline then married and worked 6 years as a Prevention Specialist. Now, I homeschool our two boys. I am renovating a 1925 home. If I ever finish it, I doubt I will do it again. During "my time" I oil paint and render pictures in colored pencils. Joining in my husband's interests in Old-Time Mountain Music I sing and bang on the guitar. No two friends of mine are alike. I surround myself with intellegent, eccentric, good hearted people. As a Protestant Christian I adhere to no one particular denomination. Spirtuality and growth are more important. Some have called me stubborn; I prefer strong willed. I strive for competency without the fear of change, and I enjoy sarcastic humor.Classic literature and classic movies can't be beat. You can never go wrong with chocolate. Shrimp and steak are my favorite dinners. I only consume vegetables on occasion for nutritional purposes. To find out more you'll just have to keep reading my blog entries. Be sure to leave a comment so I can get to know you too.
