Presented by Katherine Henn, Ph.D.

This has been a personal research by Ms. Henn as her grandfather was born on an Erie Canal boat !  His father owned two canal boats and he worked on the canal until his early 20's. 

This is an interesting topic and an historical one also, and there is much to learn and know ,  about the state of New York, the towns between the beginning and end of the Canal, and it's importance in so many ways.    

Please join us for an informative historical presentation this month.
