Did Leesburg's original courthouse survive the civil war? If so, maybe we could change the wording on the text to read "The original courthouse was one of few in the South to survive the civil war. It has since been replaced with a courthouse built in 1894." Bo-Lingua 01:25, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Factoid removal
Any particular reason you removed the factoid? It places some of the residents of leesburg at Pickett's Charge (Gettysburg). Not saying good or bad, just wondering why. Bo-Lingua 06:24, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
- As I tried to give the page a bit more structure, it was the one item that didn't seem, to me, to really fit anywhere. Also, it didn't have a reference despite having been tagged for a little while. Finally, it's interesting mainly because it suggests a living connection to the civil war, but it has less relevance as time goes on and we don't know if the man is still alive or not.
