In this episode of Public History, we are sharing the story of the Workman family of Wiconisco, Pennsylvania and their ties to the Battle of Spotsylvania Court House in May 1864. Josiah and Franklin Workman were young soldiers in the 96th Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry who lost their lives during the fighting on May 10, 1864.
Their story is one that reveals the legacy of tragedy left behind in the wake of the Overland Campaign, one of the Civil War's deadliest periods that left tens of thousands dead. This month marks the 160th anniversary of this crucial moment in American history.
