TIME MACHINE Preview.. Napoleon-Eastern Shore Connection?

The first lines of a biography read "Napoleon Bonaparte was a military general who became the first emperor of France. His drive for military expansion changed the world."

A newspaper article published more than a hundred years ago reveals a possible Eastern Shore connection to Napoleon!  Accomac County and Princess Anne are prominently mentioned in the article.

Read the intriguing story this Sunday right here at The Pocomoke Public Eye.

Do you have a local memory to share with PPE readers.. such as a big snow storm, a favorite school teacher, a local happening, something of interest your parents or grandparents told you about?  It can be just a line or two, or more if you wish. Send to  tkforppe@yahoo.com and watch for it on a future TIME MACHINE posting!
