Just posted: A fabulous article about "Emancipation Day: The Freed People of Port Royal," vol. 27 #1 of Coastal Heritage – Fall 2012. According to author John Tibbetts, "On Emancipation Day–January 1, 1863–sea islanders of the Beaufort
District realized what they must do to help defeat the Confederacy and
