I found this on a CW reenactors message board. It's a bit of a ramble with no regard for syntax, but if Sic'em is willing to drive to SC, there is a 21 y/o girl waiting for him...although he'll have to make himself look older.;)
Note: If Sic'em decides to apply for the job, he better bring a stick because I expect more than a few fellers will be competing for the privilege of squiring this gal around the ballrooms while toasting the death of Lincoln.:D
Hey yall! I'm new to this, but my friend told me about this forum and how it would be a good idea to find what I'm looking for.
[long sentence alert]
I portray Mrs. Lucy Petway Holcombe Pickens, also known as the Queen of the Confederacy, wife of Col. Francis Wilkinson Pickens, governor of South Carolina during the succession [sic] and firing on Fort Sumter, I don't understand how this man can fade from commonly known history and from reenactments, just as I don't understand how Lucy's name isn't as common as Mary Chestnut's when it was Lucy that was on Confederate money, anyway, I digress, I figured that if I am going to be impersonating Lucy, that there needs to be a Col. Pickens as well and we need to be together since they were husband and wife, he was also 27 years older than her, and I do want to stick as close to that as possible, he was 51 and she 25 when they married, I mean I am 21 right now and Lucy was 28 when the war started, but I play off the age thing well, hehe, I am also working on trying to get together a Holcombe Legion with a friend of mine as well, which was named for Lucy of course, so basically what I am looking for is someone to portray Gov. Pickens along with me, I don't expect for this to come together quickly, but if anyone is interested, please let me know, Id really appreciate it!!
she looks cute too.

Confederate Cleopatra! (actually, those are cadet reenackers from my alma mater. It's kinda embarrasing.)
