See the battle of Wilson’s Creek through the eyes of a farming family caught up in combat and its aftermath. The Ray family not only lost much of their property to foraging soldiers, but they witnessed the horrifying toll of battle when their home became a makeshift field hospital. The historic Ray House and Springhouse are the only surviving period structures from 1861 in the park, which is one of the country’s best-preserved Civil War battlefields.
