Bedford Heritage Trust and the Bedford County Chamber of Commerce had a ribbon-cutting Thursday evening at Fort Bedford Museum to celebrate the opening of a new exhibit, âThe Story of Indian Eve.â
On display at the exhibit is a small, deer hide covered trunk which tells of the story of Indian Eve or Eve Ernst and her return to Bedford.
This story begins on a morning in September 1777, where Adam Ernst and two of his neighbors were killed by Shawnee.
Adamâs wife, Eve, and his two youngest sons, Henry, 5, and Michael, 2, were taken prisoner.
The rest of the children, George, Jacob, Johannes and Mary escaped.
