Come learn about the history to be discovered in handwritten and typed family letters. O’Connor will explain how he organized the approximately 700 pages of letters and used them to authenticate the characters' stories, the significance of the house where the family lived, and other locations and events in Elgin. He will focus on those letters and commentary that have significance to Elgin's history. He invites you to bring letters you have in your collections to share.
