Stephen Chicoine’s OUR HALLOWED GROUND and other unpublished research were incorporated into and referenced in the official proposal to the United States Department of the Interior to have Fort Snelling National Cemetery placed on the National Register of Historic Places. John Knapp, Director of Fort Snelling National Cemetery, acknowledged Chicoine’s work at the formal ceremony on August 26, 2106, dedicating the cemetery as a National Historic Site.

Most of the research is completed (five filing cabinets are full). Rough drafts have been completed on all five volumes. The first two volumes are well along after multiple drafts.
