ABOUT
Seabrook Village
Award-winning Seabrook Village is a unique, African-American living history museum on the Georgia Coast dedicated to education, research and the authentic portrayal of African-American history and culture from 1865-1930. Almost all artifacts, land and structures have been donated by collectors or the community. Interpreters come from community families whose roots go back over 150 years, from slavery through the scorched earth ruin of Sherman’s “March to the Sea,” through the first days of freedom and land ownership, and finally, to establishing success.

FUN FACTS
Two hundred thousand Civil War soldiers were boys no older than 16, and an estimated 300 women were brave enough to disguise themselves as men and fight in the war. The average soldier weighed only 145 pounds due to poor diet, long marches, disease, and tough living, and earned between $13-$16 per month. Reading about these facts is interesting, but actually living them makes the information come alive. Living History Centers can allow students to experience how people lived during important historical eras, including enlisting as a soldier during the Civil War.
