First-Person Portrayal of

Regimental Quartermaster Sergeant

Edward N. Boots, 101st PA Veteran Volunteer Infantry

I have been performing first-person portrayals of Edward N. Boots since 1994 and it has been my honor to ensure his life has not been forgotten. I am so thankful to those of you who have attended the various venues at which Edward was able to come to life and tell his story.

Gray has found its way into my beard and it has become a challenge to portray a 31 year old. My aunt once said that I should never stop telling others about Edward. I am not stopping, but moving on to another chapter. I hope that I can finish the book I am writing about him and the 101st PA. Please pray for me that I can accomplish this task.

Final Performance - 25 May 2024 - 7 pm.

Concord Church, 285 Concord Church Rd., Beaver Falls, PA
