We’re hosting a summit between former First Ladies Mary Lincoln and Lucretia Garfield at 6:30 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 14, in our Main Branch.
The widows of Presidents Abraham Lincoln and James A. Garfield will be portrayed by historical reenactors Marian King and Debbie Weinkamer, respectively. Discover what these women shared in common — from life in the Executive Mansion to the assassinations of their husbands.
This program shines the spotlight on these special women — one commonly misunderstood, the other often forgotten. It’s free to attend and open to all. Due to limited space, registration is required. Sign up online or by calling us at 440-255-8811 ext. 1.
