New Book Highlights Black Civil War Vets In WA State

Historian and author Cynthia Wilson uncovers the stories of over 30 Black Civil War veterans who relocated to Washington State in a new book, "Black Civil War Veterans In Washington State."

Among the men featured is Jessee Donaldson (1846-1913), who served with the 15th United States Colored Infantry in Tennessee. 

Big thanks and gratitude to Ms. Wilson for sharing Jessee's story along with the rest of the men of valor.
