Vicksburg’s Bicentennial Time Capsule to Be Unearthed Friday
Vicksburg officials will open a 50-year-old time capsule in a bicentennial celebration at the Warren County Courthouse on Friday, October 17.
Fifty years ago, Peggy Sue Fulghum watched history unfold as a time capsule was buried as part of the nation’s bicentennial celebration. Now, five decades later, the moment has arrived to unearth it.
Fulghum, along with her daughter, Jennifer Fulghum Lewis, will witness the unearthing, which will be held at 12:30 p.m. at the Warren County courthouse, 1009 Cherry St.
