G.A.R. Hall & Museum Introducing Genealogy Hour
The G.A.R. Hall and Meeker County Museum will be hosting another Civil War Roundtable meeting next Thursday – October 10th. The meetings are held on the second Thursday of each month at 1:30 p.m.
Museum Executive Director Danelle Erickson says the Civil War Roundtable has a membership, but visitors are welcome to attend for $3. She says Litchfield native Brian Pease will be speaking during the October 10th meeting about battle flags with the topic “Carrying the Colors with Courage, Pride and Honor.”
Erickson says a new group will begin meeting at the museum in Litchfield soon. She says the Genealogy Hour will be held on the first Thursday of each month at 5:30 p.m. and the first meeting will be coming up on November 7th.
Erickson says the museum has some materials that people are welcome to use as they explore their family history. She says the Meeker County Historical Society will have its annual meeting on December 5th. The Museum at 308 North Marshall Avenue is open Tuesdays through Fridays from 10-to-4 and Saturdays from noon-to-4. For more information, go to meekercomuseum.org.
