Special Program
On October 25, 2023 from 7-8PM we will host Twinsburg author, Marion Starling Boyer, who will speak about how she uncovered her grandmother’s secret through Ancestry.com and that led her to travel to England and write her book, The Sea Was Never Far. Join us as Boyer unfolds the mystery, shares documents of London’s Foundling Home, and recreates the historical voices of fishermen and gutting girls during the English herring industry’s boom from 1900 to 1913.
