It's Springtime and we are launching another "Speakers' Series". On the third Sunday of each month during the summer and fall, we will present programs of historical interest.
This month on the 17th we will feature a special program at 1:00. We will feature a collection of McGrew-Hagans family artifacts. Some have come from direct descendants of James and Persis Hagans McGrew; others have come from community members who recognized the McGrew name, and who have donated artifacts that are related to the family or reflect something that pertains to the life and times of the family.
Susan Hardesty will be available to provide information and answer questions you may have. She has done extensive research on the family, the end result being a published book. She also edited Mr. McGrew's biography of his wife, Persis.
Guests will receive a newly printed "Walking Tour Guide" to follow as they explore other rooms and displays throughout the house.
The program is free to the public. Light refreshments will be served. Also, the gift shop will be open.
Please join us.

Thanks to all for a very successful "Souper Taste of Christmas" this afternoon.
Thanks to the members and other volunteers that made it a success--those who did the planning, with others provided the food, set up for the event, and were present to help with the event.
Also, thanks to members who decorated the house.
The McGrew Society couldn't continue to be successful without the help and support of all of you.
Again! Thank You!
Rosemary
