SUMMARY:York Civil War Roundtable\, June
DESCRIPTION:This program will be held in-person and available on Zoom. \nIn-Person Registration \nZoom Registration \nAll roads lead to York County and the county is the center of the universe. No doubt. You’d be hard pressed to find another county north of the Mason-Dixon Line with American Revolution and Civil War stories as rich. The 250th anniversaries of the Declaration of Independence and Articles of Confederation give us an opportunity to look at connections between the two wars\, spaced only about 85 years apart. Jim McClure will present about military\, historical\, cultural and political connections between these two history-shaping eras in York County and national history. This is a follow-up to McClure’s York Civil War Roundtable presentation in 2025. He will summarize Part I as a lead-in to this 2026 presentation on June 17. \nJim McClure is a retired editor of the York Daily Record/ York Sunday News\, after serving in leadership positions at the news organization for more than 30 years. In that time\, he also served as USA Today Network’s state editor for Pennsylvania\, Delaware and Maryland\, overseeing six daily newsrooms. He previously served as East Region editor for Digital First Media with oversight of 24 daily newsrooms. He was senior on-site editor for coverage of the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre in Newtown\, Connecticut\, and the Boston Marathon bombing. He is the author or co-author of 10 books on York County history\, including works on the American Revolution\, Civil War and World War II. In 2025\, he was inducted into the Pennsylvania News Media Association Hall of Fame. He is a partner with Jamie Noerpel and Dominish Marie Miller in the streaming YouTube series “Hometown History.” \n
