When the PBS folks want somebody with the knowledge of not only the history of New Bern, but also the stories of the people, who do they call? Native New Bernian, Nelson McDaniel, of course! Naturally, the New Bern Historical Society also turns to Nelson who will present Voices in the Cause of Freedom, in a Lunch & Learn on April 20 at 11:30 am at the Carolina Colours Pavilion at 3300 Waterscape Way. The men and women of New Bern have made major contributions to the creation of the United States and the advancement of democracy for 300 years. This thoughtful presentation will highlight a few of these major contributors to the cause of freedom, to include the founding Palatines, John Wright Stanly, William Gaston, Abraham Galloway, George Henry White, and Bayard Wootten.
