About this Event

Through family letters, artifacts, handwritten notes, dusty newspaper accounts, tax records, wills, and deeds, Kathy Olsen, with a small team of Mansion researchers, was able to piece together the fascinating history of the holdings of two renowned Gilded Age families. Join us for this revealing talk, which will span generations and uncover family assets, surprising beneficiaries, and secret scandals. The talk will be held in the Multimedia Gallery at Stepping Stones Museum for Children. Q&A and Refreshments will follow the presentation.
