About Peter Lebec, namesake of the Bakersfield Muzzleloaders Peter Lebec Rendezvous
A mysterious message found carved into the bark of an oak tree read: “Peter Lebeck [sic] Killed by a X Bear Oct 17 1837.” The discovery of Lebec’s famous epitaph by the Foxtail Rangers (a group of Bakersfield outdoor enthusiasts) was not the first, but was definitive proof that Lebec once lived and was struck down by a grizzly and buried below the tree that bears (pun intended) the inscription. The most likely theory of the mystery of Peter Lebec is that he was a fur trapper, but not with a French Canadian company as was long suspected. It would appear that he was more likely a part of Jean-Baptiste Chalifoux’s gang of trappers and horse thieves from New Mexico who were known to be in the area in 1837. But local lore prevails. To this day, a Peter Lebec Rendezvous is held each year to honor the mysterious frontier trapper. One thing is for sure: Lebec’s unfortunate encounter with a grizzly made him Kern County’s most famous mountain man.

2019 Fort Frederick 18th Century Market Fair

Rate This Event

Journey to the past at the 25th Annual Fort Frederick 18th Century Market Fair on April 25-29, 2019 at Fort Frederick State Park in Big Pool, Maryland. The Fort Frederick 18th Century Market Fair features the best period artisans, craftspeople, and sutlers together with an 18th Century encampment. Explore Maryland’s French and Indian War era stone fort built in 1756. See hundreds of reenactors and 18th century sutlers (vendors) selling 18th C. period wares: paintings and prints, clothing and fabric, books, camp gear, muskets, fireplace and cooking hardware, lanterns, copperware, etc. Attend the Auction on Saturday for great buys on items donated by the sutlers.

Fort Frederick 18th Century Market Fair
Fort Frederick 18th Century Market Fair is hosted by the “Friends of Fort Frederick” in partnership with the staff of Fort Frederick State Park. To get to the Market Fair, take exit 12 (MD 56) off of I-70, about 15 minutes west of Hagerstown. Hours are Thursday through Saturday from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm; and Sunday from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm. Entrance fees are: Adults – $5, Children 6 to 12 – $2, Children 5 and under – Free. 4-Day Passes are available – contact the Visitor Center at 301-842-2155.
When this event began in 1994, the Fort Frederick 18th Century Market Fair had much more of a rendezvous flavor. Participants portrayed time periods from the 1600s through the end of the mountain-man era in the 1840s, and even Plains-style teepee camps were common. In 2003, responsibility for organizing the event shifted from a regional blackpowder club to the Friends of Fort Frederick, who decided to honor the history of the region and limit the time period for portrayals to the 18th century.
Public Hours:
9:00 am – 5:00 pm Thursday through Saturday
9:00 am – 3:00 pm on Sunday

The Fort Frederick 18th Century Market Fair is a juried event. All clothing, camping gear and equipment used by participants must be appropriate to the time period from 1730 to 1790. Vendors must also meet these standards, both in their clothing and equipment, and in the wares offered for sale. First-time vendors are vetted in advance by the Friends of Fort Frederick Trade Committee before they are allowed to participate.
The 18th-century timeframe is in keeping with the event’s venue. The centerpiece of Fort Frederick State Park is a massive stone fortification that was built in 1756, after the defeat of General Braddock exposed the western colonial frontier to attacks by the French and their native allies.
During the Fort Frederick 18th Century Market Fair, a contingent of reenactors portraying French and Indian War-era Maryland provincial troops man the fort, live in the barracks and provide interpretive events for visitors. These men portray members of Alexander Beall’s and Joshua Beall’s companies of Maryland forces. During the Market Fair, the troops have a schedule of exhibitions that they perform. You can watch marching demonstrations, flag-raising ceremonies or demonstrations of 18th-century military music.
Civilian reenactors and living historians of every type that you could have found in 18th-century society can be found at the Fort Frederick Market Fair. Most of the campers portray typical frontier types, dressing and equipping themselves as hunters or scouts. There is also a large contingent that prefers to portray the higher strata of colonial society, so that, among the rough-and-tumble long hunters you’ll find powdered-wig aristocrats and evening-gowned ladies. There are also quite a few reenactors who portray Native Americans of the period.
Rogers’ Rangers at the Market Fair
Fort Frederick 18th Century Market Fair also serves as one of the largest gatherings of Rogers’ Rangers reenactors. Roger’s Rangers started as an independent company of light troops. Their job was to serve as scouts and skirmishers that operated well forward of conventional troops, harassing the French and securing intelligence. They performed their work so well that, by the end of the war, Robert Rogers was a major leading a small battalion of his Rangers, and the Rangers were the chief scouting unit for the British forces. Rogers’ Rangers are the direct ancestors of our modern U.S. Army Rangers.
Today, Rogers’ Rangers are primarily reenacted by members of Jaeger’s Battalion. Jaeger’s Battalion is a national, colonial period historical reenactment group headquartered in Grand Rapids, Michigan. This is one of the oldest reenacting groups in the country. The battalion serves as the umbrella group for the various state-based Ranger companies. At the Market Fair you will usually see Battalion Adjutant Bill Blair leading companies from Virginia, Maryland and Pennsylvania, and sometimes companies from much farther afield.
Colonial Commerce – It’s why you’re here!
The fort and the military reenactors are a major part of the event, but the main draw at the Fort Frederick 18th Century Market Fair is the vendors. Expect about 150 vendors to set up shop selling their 18th-century goods. Events like this are essential to reenactors and living historians who need to outfit themselves with period-correct gear.

In addition to craftsmen, there are vendors who offer the full range of 18th-century essentials. At Fort Frederick Market Fair, you can fully outfit your person with 18th-century apparel from several excellent tailors. You could also buy every item you would need to outfit a comfortable camp, from the tent all the way down to a colonial pot scrubber. And you can pick up all the muzzleloading gear you need, from a custom rifle or musket to a handmade powder horn or a custom shooting bag. And, if you don’t need any big-ticket items, you’ll find a full range of small items like cleaning jags and forged screwdrivers.
In addition to the formal vendors, you’ll find many reenactors offering a variety of gear for sale on informal “trade blankets”. Any camper may set up a blanket in front of their camp and offer goods for sale to passersby at Fort Frederick Market Fair.
About Fort Frederick
Fort Frederick was one of the largest frontier fortifications built during the French and Indian War. It occupies an area of 1.5 acres, and it was built to stand up to a major military assault. The fort’s massive stone walls are 4.5 feet thick at the base. Inside the fort, two large barracks buildings face each other across the parade ground. The fort is open and inside the walls you can tour the two barracks buildings. They are furnished with sleeping quarters, workshops and offices, just as they would have been during the mid-18th century.

Mark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Fort Frederick 18th Century Market Fair in April (weekend from Thursday to last Sunday of month) at Fort Frederick State Park in Big Pool, Maryland.

What is a Rendezvous?
Historical reenactment which reflects the dress and lifestyle of early-America’s hunters and trappers is sometimes referred to as buckskinning. Whether the portrayal is that of the western mountain man, the eastern long-hunter, or the Native American, buckskinning allows people to recreate various aspects of this historical period at event such as the Spring Thaw Rendezvous.
The Rendezvous is both a history-oriented and social occasion. Many of the “buckskinners” in the Ball and Arrow Primitive Weapons Club enjoy attending and hosting Rendezvous where we camp in pre-1840 lodging, cook meals over open fires, and dress for that time period.
There are muzzleloading, primitive archery and tomahawk/knife throwing competitions which take place during these events. Other activities sometimes include fire-starting competitions (using flint and steel), games for the children and singing around the campfire. Currently B&A members host three of these camps per year.
Mark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Spring Thaw Rendezvous at the Ball and Arrow Primitive Weapons Club in Roswell, Ohio.

A BRIEF HISTORY OF HUNTER’S RAID IN BUCHANANDuring the Civil War, the Town of Buchanan served as an important Confederate supply depot for shipment of agricultural produce and pig iron to Richmond via the James River and Kanawha Canal. Buchanan Farmers provided the Confederate quartermaster with beef, cotton, yarn and corn. Buchanan also provided troops for the Confederate war effort, most notably for the Botetourt Artillery. The unit distinguished itself in the defense of Vicksburg.
Federal General David Hunter marched through Buchanan on June 13, 1864 on his ill-fated raid in Lynchburg. The following day Confederate General J.D. Imboden reported that Hunter had driven Confederate troops under McCausland’s command out of Buchanan. Period letters tell how McCausland burned the covered bridge over the James River before leaving igniting a fire which destroyed close to thirty buildings. Personal letters of the era also tell of the devastation to Buchanan caused by the war including the burning of Col. John Anderson’s home known as Mount Joy, the three day Federal occupation of Oak Hill, the Anchorage, the Presbyterian Manse as well as other private homes and offices throughout Town.

About the Encampment
The Locust Grove Revolutionary War Encampment started out as a “spring training” for the Illinois Regiment reenactment group, which travels throughout the region to participate in Revolutionary War battle reenactments and encampments. Period reenactors set up tents, don period dress and live as Clark and his troops lived — and they invite the public to interact with history. It’s really a way for the reenactors to share their knowledge and their love of history with visitors, who can come and see history firsthand,” Williams said.
About Historic Locust Grove
Historic Locust Grove is located in Louisville, Kentucky. Sitting high above the Ohio River the house was built in 1792 by William Croghan and his wife Lucy Clark Croghan. It was a bustling household that often became a gathering place for the other Clark siblings including both General George Rogers Clark and William Clark of the Lewis and Clark Corps of Discovery and the many nieces and nephews of the large extended family.

Gathering at Macktown

2019 Gathering at Macktown

Rate This Event

The Annual Gathering at Macktown on April 27-28, 2019 at Macktown Living History Educational Center in Rockton, Illinois lets you experience pre-1850s frontier life. Take a step back in time to experience American frontier life through the 1840’s. At the Gathering at Macktown, you will meet traders and trappers, French voyageurs and Native Americans. Enjoy food and mercantile vendors, demonstrations and black powder shooting. This Gathering at Macktown takes place on the last full weekend of April each year.
On the early frontier, a Gathering was a special time once a year when trappers, traders, settlers and Native Americans came together to trade, share news, have sporting contests and ofttimes even marry. More civilized than an early Rendezvous, since it now included settler families, it was a greatly anticipated event that could last for several days.
In this living history event, the Gathering at Macktown, visitors can feel themselves transported to a different time. Whether tasting homemade root beer or period foods, visiting the Native American village and experiencing a woodlands lifestyle, learning the proper way to throw a tomahawk, or strolling through a historic site seemingly untouched by time, they will experience the 1650-1850 eras of exploration, trade and early settlement.

Visitors can talk with voyageurs, trappers, Native Americans, militiamen, settlers and craftsmen who have gathered to trade news and goods. There will be black powder shooting demonstrations, archery demonstrations, canoe landings, demonstrations of old-time crafts and skills, bag pipes and Janesville Drum and Fife Corps will perform – and more!!
Tour original buildings on a national historic site, Macktown Living History Educational Center, and meet Stephen Mack as he shares his home with you. This living history presentation of American life from 1690 to 1850 is a family-friendly event with plenty of hands-on activities, music and much more!
So, why just read about history when you can experience it! Reenactors at the Annual Gathering at Macktown have studied the time period, and love sharing what they have learned with camp visitors. The Gathering is expected attract about 100 reenactors roving in about the camp in period attire.
There will also be chances for guests to try out archery (times to be determined). Children will enjoy when the Candy Cannon is shot! (Shooting candy out of a cannon for children to gather.) There also will be a paddle dance, comparable to the The Virginia Reel during the Civil War.

Colonial Fort Halifax Festival Education Day (Friday):
Reaching young people in the community is an important component of The
Friends of Fort Halifax, Inc. Mission. The Colonial Fort Halifax Festival, including Education Day, is vital to giving young people a living history lesson that teaches them what early American life was like in their hometown, the impact Fort Halifax had during the French and Indian War, its significance to the surrounding areas, and its importance to the American Colonies, Pennsylvania, and the Nation. It is an important event for young people, helping them understand, visually imagine, experience, and appreciate this local treasure and the history it represents!
In conjunction with Halifax School District, fifth grade students and teachers arrive at Fort Halifax Park for Education Day (traditionally the first Friday/weekend of May). Students are treated to a fifth grade curriculum based living history lesson in colonial life by historians and re-enactors dressed in period attire who have volunteered to serve as docents (guide) for the day.
Period representations, speakers, exhibits, and demonstrations typically include: Blacksmith, Bladesmith, Horn Carver, Pennsylvania Provincial officers and recruits, Fort Augusta Regimental officers and soldiers, Camp followers, Native Americans, and French Milice (Militia). Frontier living activities include: hunting, trapping, weaving, carpentry, and early American games.
Pets must be kept on a leash and picked up after.
