Many Historians Credit Murphysboro Native John A. Logan With The Founding Of Memorial Day.

As we approach the Memorial Day Holiday, we take a close look at the early days of General John A. Logan.  Our expert is Mike Jones, the Executive Director of the General John A. Logan Museum in Murphysboro.  For more information about the museum browse to:http://www.loganmuseum.org/
