  1. Anything is possible it is a stockade. It has been around since the Civil War the French and Indian War a lot of various stuff is happening.

  2. Been around since the Civil War? It was settled in 1600’s I believe, long before the Civil War. Bottom line is if “ghosts” or “spirits” do exist then there would be no place more likely to be haunted locally than the Stockade. I personally don’t but am still fascinated by the possibility.
