Railroad museum event in Ellicott City recalls Dorsey's role in Civil War

 

The role of six dozen Howard County African-Americans who served as Union soldiers in the U.S. Colored Troops during the Civil War will be commemorated July 30 in Ellicott City on the 152nd anniversary of the Battle of the Crater — an ambitious attack that spawned a hometown hero.
