BEDFORD COUNTY HISTORICAL SOCIETY NAMES
JEFF WHETSTONE OF EVERETT HISTORIAN OF THE YEAR FOR 2022

The Bedford County Historical Society, Committee for Historian of the Year selected Jeffery Whetstone, of Everett for 2022. Over the years, he has offered Guide Tours to highlight historic locations in and around Everett, shared his knowledge of local artifacts and was a resource for those seeking knowledge of Bedford County history. In 2022, he has published several articles in the newsletters for the society`s `Pioneer`.

In 2004, he co-authored the book `From Winchester to Bloody Run` along with Steve Hollingshead, an invaluable resource of local Civil War history.

Jeff is long overdue the recognition and distinction that affords a historian of his caliber. His diligence in historic preservation has been a mainstay in our county over the years. He will receive his award at our annual banquet to be held on Saturday, April 22, 2023.
