About
Explore the voices and stories of the women that came to the Lincoln area in the early 1800s. Historically overlooked, these women share an experience that is now being uncovered and explored.
Join Mary Lou Garr, as she discusses the important role of women in Lincoln in the 1800s, and the lives they led. With information gleaned from diaries, letters and other archives, Invisible Pioneers presents the stories of the people who were left out of official records.
Presented by the Friends of Lincoln’s History.
