The Boyle County Sheriff’s Office is looking for the person who stole Civil War firearms and other items.
Sheriff Derek Robbins said that the items were stolen from a home in Perryville, a community known for a major Civil War battle.
“There was some civil war guns, some cannon balls, you know small memorabilia like some old jewelry and different things that probably had a lot of sentimental value especially to people in Perryville,” said Robbins.

The sheriff said that the memorabilia was linked to the battle where thousands lost their lives.
“Some of those things were used in the Battle of Perryville, where some of those people had family members who fought in that battle. So sentimental value wise, they’re irreplaceable. So it’s pretty important to us to get that stuff back,” he said.
He asks that anyone with information about the burglary call the Sheriff’s Office. They are willing to offer a reward for the return of the items.
