I have visited Harper’s Ferry. My grandfather’s cavalry unit was there, 7th W.Va. Cavalary. I have gone on the ghost tour. Also, I have visited Gettysburg, Pa. and stayed at the Cashtown Inn. So far my old home seems to have the most ghosts. My husband and I did encouter we think was Mary Custis at Woodlawn Plantation. We had just completed the ghost tour in November and was standing next to her garden. We both smelled a very sweet odor like an oil, no one was around, but us. November, no flowers were blooming and I do not wear perfume. Also, I visited his Lordship Kindness in Clinton, Md. There is a plantation and old cemetary. At the cemetary three girls were buried, age 17, 19 and 21 in the 1800′s. Once again I smelled a very sweet odor and felt a cold chill, it was summer, 90 degrees. There is either a property marker or old grave on my property near a very old cherry tree. My husband heard a female voice while waiting for me to come home one night, thinking it was me, unlocked the front door and turned on the light to find nothing. He felt very errie until I came home about 1/2 hr. later.
