Notice is herewith given that a Market Fair shall be held at the grounds designated as the seat of Major William Croghan, known as Locust Grove, six miles up river from the Falls of the Ohio…

Join Historic Locust Grove and the Illinois Regiment of Virginia as we bring the spirits of the past alive with the fifth annual Market Fair!

Watch the entertainment (musicians, jugglers, even sword-swallowers!), purchase replicas of 18th century military and household items (linens, quill pens, laces, powderhorns, tin and pewterware), and enjoy food and drink as our 18th century ancestors did.

Visit with the local doctor, and meet the town ratcatcher. Mock battles for our country’s independence feature General George Rogers Clark’s own militia as well as English Dragoons and Marines, German Hessians, and Native American forces. Re-enactors build a temporary camp on the site, and visitors can visit and see how the military slept, cooked, and drilled during the Revolutionary era.

Revolutionary War Re-enactors register here for Market Fair
