Ghost Tales of Weston
“Ghost Tales of Weston” is next Friday October 30th at Main Street Galleria Antuques and Gifts store. One of the most famous ghosts is Captain James D. McCardy, of the 7th Cavalry in Richmond, Virginia of the Confederate Army during the Civil War. His writing desk bearing his name is on display in the Galleria. The name plate on the desk, bears the Captain’s name and the date 1861, Richmond Virginia. When the owner of Main Street Galleria purchased the Civil War era writing desk, she did not know that she had acquired more than just the desk. The ghost of Captain McCardy came with it.
Weston was established in 1837 and at one time boasted the largest population of Western Missouri of over 5,000 not counting livestock and thieves. It was the crossroads of many travelers, merchants and families moving west. Many fell in love with this antebellum town and could never leave. Some still roam the housing and streets to this day. Main Street Galleria & The UpStairs TeaRoom claim 3 of their own.
