Upon the headstones of Robert Adams and Eveline McCord Adams are written their telling epitaphs. Robert’s reads, “After life’s fitful fever, he sleeps well.” Eveline’s reads, “To know her was to love her.”

Filmed on location where the true events actually took place, the current generations of Adamses followed the path of Robert and Eveline to bring their story to life in The Last Confederate: The Story of Robert Adams.

To ensure authenticity of their family’s story, Julian and Weston turned to the wealth of diaries, letters, and family documents surrounding Robert and Eveline. Records of Robert’s enlistment in the Confederate Army, his military service records, and his prison documents from Elmira, New York, also brought the elegant and horrible details of his story to light.
