Michael Coker, curator of South Carolina Historical Society, recently started a new group on Facebook – The Lincoln Assassination. As the group name reflects, the group is dedicated to Abraham Lincoln’s assassination. The following note from Michael describes the group:
“If anyone is interested in the events and people surrounding the Lincoln assassination, I am the admin for the only such group on Facebook. I have 30 links posted, over 200 related photos, and use the discussion board not only for debate but also to post historic articles of interest. I invite one and all to come join the conversation!”

If you are not a member of Facebook, I encourage you to sign up. There is no cost, and there is a significant amount of Civil War content on Facebook, including a group I started, American Civil War Battlefields. Check out this new group – it is very interesting.
