The team responsible for a documentary being released this weekend about DeWitt County soldiers, unearthed some surprises along the way in the production process and are excited about what they have to share.
Tony Long was the primary producer of the documentary, The Soldiers Plot, which will premier this weekend in Clinton. He indicates in the months of work on the production, he encountered several surprises along the way.
The connection in the documentary stretch across the county as Long explains, a Farmer City doctor who was a prodigy of Dr. John Warner, crops up in their research.
Yesterday on Regional Radio News, Long discussed a connection between Warner and Ulysses S. Grant. Not giving away too many details and the story, he previews what that connection was all about.
The premier of the documentary, The Soldiers Plot, is this Saturday at 6:30 pm at the DeWitt County Museum. Admittance is $10 and there will be a discussion to follow the showing.
