Events Recap: Civil War Exhibit
|
Throughout November and December, Somerset County Library hosted the National Libraries of Medicine exhibit Life and Limb: The Toll of the American Civil War. This exhibit explored the history of disabled Civil War veterans. To learn even more about the Civil War, we hosted events including a Grand Opening celebration, History and Genealogy Event, and Civil War storytelling. Abraham Lincoln himself even stopped by for a visit! Thank you to everyone who helped make these events possible!
