Really, they aren't true :?:
THEY ARE TRUE............ if you go to the site I posted above you can read all about them. Also as I stated they were used in the Carolinas and there is written documentation pertaining to that. If people researched the right places they would know. I am a history nut as is my son what has his BS in history, and is now getting his 2nd masters stupid he is not, he could tell you how many men Picket had on his charge in Gettysburg. He will attest to what WE have read freedom quilt were used as were certain color curtains and candles or will anyone disbute that? When it comes to the CW we have read everything in print and oop on the subject. I have friends who reenact some portray runaway slaves and they have to have facts and they state that they are true.
