I heard in passing some months ago that somebody was interested in a staff ride of the Centralia, Boone County, fight. Maybe it was you. Please contact me privately at Mapmaker3@aol.com and I will be delighted to make recommendations and point you in some helpful directions. I am a DoD employee heavily involved in other duties, but I assisted another DoD agency find a staff ride for Wilson's Creek Battlefield that they used for a field trip recently with good results.

My Civil War writing is a hobby to help me relax from my normal day job, but I will be glad to render some assistance if you desire it.
