This is the 150 year old love story between my great-great-grandparents, Winston and Octavia (Bryant) Stephens, set against the backdrop of the St. Johns River in Florida and the Civil War. A love story told purely in their own words through their letters and diaries and the letters and diaries of eight other family members.
July 1, 1861. Mary did not come on the boat. Winston went to town, received a bundle of things from Mother. In the afternoon Toady came over for some things for Ma & to say she could not come as Reubannah was sick. Rain.
