Women's Club featuring Mary Beth Soellner Print
Wednesday, February 10 2010, 11:30am - 2:00pm

The Women's Club welcomes Mary Beth Soellner who will present a historical perspective of the area while incorporating her own ancestors' experiences. The presentation and luncheon will be held at the Harbor Springs History Museum in the second-floor Anton Library.

Soellner's great-grandfather was Dr. Carlos D. Hampton, elected the first president of the Village of Harbor Springs in 1881. Her grandfather Will Hampton was instrumental in bringing the first Carnegie Library to northern Michigan. She will share family history stories, photographs and treasures of her Hampton family as she outlines their journey from Michigan to Texas and back again during the Civil War period.

The meeting will begin at 11:30 am and includes luncheon and the opportunity to tour the museum. Cost is $10 per person, and the luncheon will be catered by the Woolly Bugger of Harbor Springs. Please RSVP to Candy Brennan at (231) 242-0832. Everyone is welcome to attend the Women's Club events.
