Abstract:

The North Carolina Natural Heritage Trust Fund approved, in February 2012, a grant of $355,000 to acquire 120 acres to add to the Bentonville Battlefield State Historic Site. The Civil War Trust will match the grant dollar-for-dollar with funds from the American Battlefield Protection Program. Each of the nine properties covered by the grant is adjacent to previously preserved land.
