LINCOLN
- Have you ever wondered who built your home? How many families have lived
there and their names? Did anything significant or exciting happen at your
home? |
Wouldn’t it be great if you could attend a free
workshop to learn how to research your home’s history? The Lincoln
Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) is planning exactly that.
On Saturday, September 27, 2014 at 10 a.m., the Lincoln Public
Library will host a workshop event that will feature speakers
Richard Sumerall of the Library, and Diane Osbourne of the Logan
County Genealogical and Historical Society. They will be presenting
information to walk you through the research process. Information
such as where to find historical documents, how to read abstracts,
what information the library has to offer, etc.
If you are interested in attending the workshop, please contact
April Doolin with the Historic Preservation Commission at
llhpc@cityoflincoln-il.gov or call the city zoning
office's number (217) 732-6318.
