Skipton Castle One of the best preserved and most complete medieaval castles in England, despite enduring a three-year siege in the Civil War. After the Battle of Marston Moor it was the only Royalist stronghold left in the North. The Governer, Sir John Mallory, negotiated a surrender, and on 21st December 1645 the garrison marched out with colours flying and trumpets sounding. Cromwell ordered the removal of the Castle roof, but only ten years later the owner, Lady Anne Clifford, was allowed to replace them - on condition they were not strong enough to bear firing cannon.
Stafford's Ancient High House The house has been one of the most important buildings of the town for over four hundred years. Its late Elizabethan architecture makes it particularly distinctive among its 20th century neighbours. Rooms are displayed in period settings illustrating the varied history of the house. The Dorrington family had the house built in 1595 of oak believed to have come from Doxey Woods. It had an important role when King Charles I and his nephew Prince Rupert stayed here in 1642 at the start of the Civil War. The following year, when Stafford was taken over by the Parliamentarians, it became a prison for Royalist Officers.

 Benjamin Harrison 23rd President of the United States |
On July 1, 1862, a full year after the bombardment of Fort Sumter, President Abraham Lincoln appealed for an additional 300,000 men in the Union Army. Along with 17 other governors, Governor Oliver P. Morton of Indiana pledged aid in furnishing the call for reinforcements. In response to this pledge, Benjamin Harrison volunteered to raise a regiment. He was immediately commissioned a Lieutenant and two weeks later was promoted to captain. By August 8, 1862 the newly appointed Colonel Harrison had raised 1000 men known as the 70th Indiana Regiment. |
 The Society of Indiana Pioneers: |
In 1915, the Indiana General Assembly created the Indiana Historical Commission which led the planning, preparation and conduct of the celebration of Indiana's Centennial. Local Centennial committees were organized throughout Indiana. Mr. John Hampden Holliday, publisher of The Indianapolis News, was the chairman of the Indianapolis committee. Sometime during the weeks of Centennial celebration, Mr. Holliday came upon the notion of organizing a society composed of people who were descendants of the early settlers of Indiana, the pioneers who opened the State to civilization, thereafter discussing, promoting and planning it with family, friends and acquaintances. On September 15, 1916, Mr. Holliday and a considerable number of people met to hear the report of a planning committee and its presentation of a proposed constitution that was adopted by those attending. In a subsequent order of business Mr. John Hampden Holliday was elected the first President, a position he held until his death in 1921. |
