Welcome to the Col. E.T. Stackhouse Camp 1576 Website! In 1896, the Sons of Confederate Veterans was founded by the veterans and progeny of veterans who fought in the War Between the States. The Sons of Confederate Veterans was established as, and remains, an independent organization that supports the protection and preservation of Confederate heritage. Current members are descendants of the original defenders of Confederate heritage, and are not aligned or affiliated with any other organization. Ask yourself these questions: "If we do not defend the principles entrusted to us by our ancestors, who will? If we do not advance the colors, who will?" Will you join us? Thank you for visiting our site. We hope that you will find much of interest on these pages. Through a variety of programs - educational initiatives, historical commemorations, to legislative initiatives to insure that our monuments are protected and legal action to protect the rights of our citizens to express publicly their heritage - we are advancing the colors. If you are a male aged twelve or older, we ask you to consider membership in the Sons of Confederate Veterans. Our heritage is still living, but under serious attack - join us and help keep it alive and vibrant! Learn more about Col. E.T. Stackhouse
Charge to the Sons of Confederate Veterans "To you, Sons of Confederate Veterans, we
will commit the vindication of the cause for which we fought.
To your strength will be given the defense of the Confederate
soldier's good name, the guardianship of his history, the emulation
of his virtues, the perpetuation of those principles which he
loved and which you love also, and those ideals which made him
glorious and which you also cherish. Are you also ready to die
for your country? Is your life worthy to be remembered along
with theirs? Do you choose for yourself this greatness of soul?
Not in the clamor of the crowded street. Not in the shouts and
plaudits of the throng. But in ourselves are triumph and defeat."
