Camp Nelson and the Simpsonville Massacre | Secrets of the Dead
Originally a supply depot for Union forces in Kentucky, Camp Nelson became the site where 10,000 Black soldiers trained in the Civil War. However, in the war’s last months, these soldiers were attacked by bitter Southerners. Their remains have never been found and a team is dedicated to finding them to memorialize their service and heroism.
