Join us for another great free history talk on Thursday, Feb 6th!Whatever Happened to Ambrose Asher?
Family stories indicate that Ambrose Asher was captured by Indians in the 1860s, with his parents’ fate unknown. While the family story was not correct in detail, it provided enough information to discover the truth through genealogical and historical research of the Plains Indian Wars. The story provides a prelude to the Sand Creek Massacre in late 1864 and later events of the Plains Indian Wars. Speaker Dave Welch, a descendant of Ambrose Asher, is a long-time member and officer of the Oregon-California Trails Association.
Time: February 6th, noon—1 PM. (doors open at 11:30 AM)
